What a fantastic thing to do.
MJAh, I see #EmmaMcKeon has joined #threads . That must be a relatively recent development. She just needs to take her account to the next level by turning on Fediverse Sharing in the account settings.
Once she does this (plus Codes and/or Justin, or anyone else), we can begin interacting (I can reply and fav/boost her posts, but she can only read and fav my replies, currently [that's why it's a beta feature]).
Emma's account will be taggable as @[email protected] once she's enabled it.

Had my first notified interaction with #BlueSky, after @the-singer.bsky.social fav'd this post/toot: https://mastodon.social/@wpgne/112726278421416144 , which was on #PrinceNeptune & Codes.
Wasn't aware the bridge allowed for that sort of thing, now. Good to know, going forward.
Hopefully Cody realises Code 102 would also apply to electronic "islands"....

All the best to Emma in Paris.
Note: I've edited this post as Emma may not technically be "retiring" or leaving swimming post-Paris. She's only announced 2024 will be her final Olympics. Wanted to clarify that point.
