fun, thanks for looking at this!
minor nit, lots of bridged fediverse accounts set custom Bluesky domain handles that don't end in ap.brid.gy. a more reliable way to detect them is the bridged-from-bridgy-fed-activitypub self label in their profile record. example: pdsls.dev/at://did:plc...

"open social web"
it's a bigger tent than just ATProto, but that's a feature, not a bug

Yes! Thanks @bmann.ca. lexrpc is fully dynamic, supports all lexicons, no codegen. Give it any lexicon JSON(s) and it can send and fetch records, make and serve XRPC calls, subscribe to and serve event streams (eg firehoses), validate records, etc.
@emily.gorcen.ski happy to answer any q's!

Looked into this more. The original version of this post didn't have any of the @-mentions or the second or third link. It was edited later to add them, and we bridged those edits, but bsky.app currently doesn't show edits, so we're seeing the original version here. github.com/snarfed/brid...

crypto can (and often does) mean cryptography, not cryptocurrency. that's what it looks like here.
this looks like a standard CloudFlare Insights (web analytics product) script. not malicious or cryptocurrency related.

Thanks! Obviously not your fault, and mastodon.social is run by competent admins, so I don't really suspect them either. Honestly not sure what happened here.

Huh, odd. Looking at our logs, we have no record of mastodon.social ever sending us a Create for that post, mastodon.social/@heatherlynn... . First time we see its AP id is over 2h later, in mastodon.social/@heatherlynn... (now deleted), your "Bridge seems to be skipping posts" post that quoted it.
