@mdm Well there are users who treat the #fediverse as some sort of #RSS feed. But if you already try to block RSS mirrors as well as #Twitter mirrors like #birdsitelive then blocking #Threads at this time makes sense. ​​

@hazelnot I don't get why people get angry over a freakin' bridge, yet they have no issue with the existence of projects like #BirdsiteLIVE. This is just so entitled. If you don't want to have your content available live on every place, just post it with a different privacy option smh

To return to the earlier example, you can't connect directly from Mastodon to Diaspora. You'd have to create a new account on a server like Hubzilla. The "bridge" we're talking about tonight is different; it is a server, but it essentially provides an interface you can use to follow a BlueSky account directly from your Mastodon account, and vice-versa. Bridges exist between Mastodon and #Nostr, too; #BirdSiteLive provides a similar service that allows connections to X / #Twitter accounts.

@ccfreak2k I obviously can't speak for them, and as an everyday .NET developer for more than an decade now - and an .NET ActivityPub implementer myself (in #BirdsiteLive) - I'm highly biased on this mater.

But since I've shipped python's API product, and I have some JS/node background too, maybe I can give some insights on the advantages of this stack:
- ASP.NET Core is (really) efficient. .NET Core is too.
- It's FOSS. .NET Core and old .NET are a complete different beasts on this matter.
- It's highly and easily multi-threaded. The framework has a lot of tooling to do multi-threading and even a junior (been there, taught that) can create reliable and efficient multi-threaded apps.
- It's an industrial/engineering focused framework (in contrary to an academic focused framework), meaning it's highly tainted and focused on code cleanness, modulability, isolation, etc. Prototyping stacks (like Python or Node) are interesting in many cases/domains, but for the long run, industrial focused stack wins in my book.

But again, as a .NET dev, I'm highly biased, but .NET is a really vibrant ecosystem and can helps getting better software at a very low cost (which mean, in FOSS, at a lower personal non-payed/low-payed investment), the only thing against it is... being MS related.

And that's why I'm curious / happy seeing this stack growing in this space.

@StefanMuenz @padeluun ja wer sagts ihnen und rechnet ihnen gleich die ganzen followzahlen der bots und #birdmakeup / #birdsitelive vor

Ich habe mir diese Übersicht mal zum Anlass genommen und in der Datenbank geschaut woher die letzten #BirdsiteLIVE Server gekommen sind und habe sie jetzt auch noch geblockt. ;-)
