ActivityPub doesn’t refuse to fix them, it’s just not that simple. Solutions have been worked on for a while.

Tbf I think the way its federation works is inherently incompatible.

I could be entirely wrong though

Federate, you cowards!

Unlike Threads, there’s people on BlueSky I actually want to follow.

They should have been giving their money to Bridgy Fed, which is working to bridge the actual content of social media rather than the app APIs.

Well, actually, I would much rather Bridgy remains independent from Dorsey’s blood money. Bluesky should just enable federation on a large scale so that it’ll actually be possible to build services around it. Right now they cap federated instances at ten users, which is a complete joke.

i believe they’ve endorsed bridge fed before; i’m not sure what the legalities of grants are and/if bridge fed asked for it

What’s the point? Mastodon should work with them but they shouldn’t work with mastodon?

Fun fact:
The entirety of bluesky was supposed to be an activity pub extension at some point.

So confused that skybridge is now getting all the media attention lol. Its been around for over a year and hasnt been updated for 3 months. It works fine, its just that nobody actually bothered to use it. Not really clear how 800 dollars is going to make a difference here.

They couldve just checked the repo lol.
