Social media should be centered around people, not platforms. Let's build bridges, not walls. That's why we're building Bridgy Fed and Bounce.

We 🫶🏼 our friends on The Forkiverse, so we've waived the one-week waiting period to bridge to Bluesky, Blacksky, Northsky, and the rest of the ATProto ecosystem 🌐

Great news that forkiverse accounts are going to have their 7-day waiting period waived for bridging. Shows what a cool little instance this is, it's reputation precedes it ✨

We've heard people like Starter Packs, so we just begun putting one together for open source organizations. It could be an OSPO like us, a Foundation that supports projects and the ecosystem or accounts for OSS events.
Take a look and tell us who else should be there.

And the fine folks at @anew.social are doing great work to maintain Bridgy Fed and Bounce, improving interoperability between the Atmosphere and the Fediverse, and have also featured some of our grant recipients in this thread 😊
We're excited to announce that Bluesky PBC included us in a round of grants to help foster the ATmosphere! Their generous grant will support infrastructure costs for Bridgy Fed and Bounce.
We're so lucky to be included among so many phenomenal builders 🙏🏼

Our first official Bounce from Mastodon to Bluesky! If you want to help us test like @teon.bsky.social did, give us a shout 🙂
Just Bounced! and that was awesome! 🤯🤩
I've finally consolidated my open social web presence. My Hachyderm account on Mastodon is no more, but now I'm connected my followers here :)
