minus-squareSpotlight7573@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·28 days agoI’m pretty sure that people were unhappy because it was opt-out at first. Now that bridging is opt-in, I don’t think most people have a problem with it and I’ve seen a number of posts from both sides of the bridge so it seems to be working.
minus-squareAdam@doomscroll.n8e.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·28 days agoIt’s unfortunate that (at least on the Bluesky side) an attempt at following a person doesn’t result in them getting a DM asking for that to be ok. Which means following a person on Bluesky is not possible unless they’ve already opted in. All I want to do is follow a couple of authors or content creators but none of them know what bridgy.fed is :(
