OMG, @bsky.brid.gy works!
I saw a Bluesky post in my Mastodon feed, so I replied from Mastodon, and that reply showed up on Mastodon AND Bluesky!!!
The post is boring, so I'm not going to link it, but I will encourage my Mastodon friends to enable cross platform sharing by opting in here https://brid.gy/mastodon/start
Thanks @snarfed.org for building this tool. I have a few friends on Bsky that I miss following, hopefully I can get them to opt-in.

@docpop @bsky.brid.gy @snarfed.org so all interactions work and are received on the other end through the bridge?

@okpierre @bsky.brid.gy @snarfed.org that appears to be the case. Folks on Bluesky can follow my bridged account (@docpop.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy). If they sign up for the bridge too, then we'll even be able to chat and interact with each other.

Worth mentioning that it's still in beta so things can break and things will change and some things are still a little rough. Like profile edits don't seem to go over, and hashtags are plain, and long posts are cutoff.

Uhm, would be cool if the simple act to follow my bridged account, from folks there, automatically added a follow to the bridge.

@nunesdennis @pfefferle @bsky.brid.gy @snarfed.org oh shoot, did I include the wrong link? I'll fix that.
Now I'm confused about what I signed up for when I signed in to brid.gy/mastodon/start
I hope it doesn't start posting my website's posts here because I already have my site connected via ActivityPub for WP.

@docpop @pfefferle @bsky.brid.gy @snarfed.org For bridgyfed you just need to follow the bridge user on the fediverse to make your profile visible in bluesky, the same for bluesky, the user there needs to follow the bridgyfed user on bluesky.
If you add your mastodon account to bridgy and your blog domain, any blog post you shared on mastodon will be linked to your blog, so the responses appears on the blog post

Yeah, very nice!
I just bothered my partner to follow the bridge from Bluesky and now we follow each other across the protocol gap. I am exited how this will work. 👍
