kinda funny how bsky is now more bridged into the fediverse than threads is

Nick † WrightCan someone make a map of the established connections?
AFAIK we have:
Bluesky <=> Mastodon
Bluesky <=> Threads
2 8Samuelno it’s
bsky <=> masto <= threads
and
bsky <=> masto <=> nostr
2 5 29
shreyan (wise)Soon to include direct bsky <=> nostr, likely

Amy :utahraptor:@samuel.bsky.team@bsky.brid.gy I feel like Threads only did it to avoid future (?) regulations and nothing more than that
1 5Samuelno, I talked to someone at meta and it sounds like they’re doing it because they’re genuinely passionate about it

Jon P (moved)Yeah, and they've got good business reasons as well. I talked about this in "Embrace, Extend, and Exploit" privacy.thenexus.today/embrace-exte...
(BTW @bnewbold.net this also has the quotes from Mosseri and other Meta folks I was talking about yesterday -- very revealing word choices!)
Embrace, Extend, and Exploit: Meta's plan for ActivityPub, Mastodon and the fediverse
What's Meta up to?

𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚗𝚎𝚝 𝚏𝚛𝚘𝚐So can we bridge to Threads some how or is it just something ppl are testing out?
1 1Samuelwe can’t bridge to threads (threaderation is one way atm) but we can see threads posts, if Ryan manually enables it (see @shnarfed.threads.net.ap.brid.gy)

𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚗𝚎𝚝 𝚏𝚛𝚘𝚐Ah, I see. We need a 3rd party client like @yup.io to integrate it into a multi-tabbed experience so it has a GUI. But, Yup is busted and doesn't work as advertised, unfortunately.
JayThreads isn’t “bridged” into the Fediverse; it’s a true (albeit incomplete) ActivityPub implementation.
(I’m sure you understand this, but I think it’s important to make the distinction.)
