I hope this helps, folks.

Again, I have no control over this. I don't post on demand. I don't get paid to post. I post to inform. If you don't like Bridgy posts, unfollow them and find other ways to get news/commentary.

I'm at Bsky because my sources are there. Double posting was no longer tenable, so I bridged for you. But that's all I can do.

@GottaLaff

Glad you dropped by! Thanks for the info.

@FallsMom YVW! Hope you're well!

@GottaLaff
You are too awesome to have to deal with this nonsense.

People, just accept reality. If you want Laffy to post the news updates here, convince her sources to move to Mastodon!

If you want to easily read the posts, grab the RSS feed and read them like I do. https://bsky.app/profile/gottalaff.bsky.social/rss

Bugging Laffy about it is just rude.

@realtegan I wonder if they say the same things to Emptywheel as they say to me. She uses Bridgy here.
@GottaLaff Iโ€™ve never seen any complaints to Marcy. Probably because she doesnโ€™t respond (that Iโ€™ve see anyway) to her followers here
@realtegan

@Danetteb I wonder, though, if they complain even if she doesn't respond. Oh well.

@realtegan

@GottaLaff itโ€™s definitely possible. I definitely donโ€™t check all the comments. Youโ€™re very gracious to even engage with it. Others post and they get what they get

@realtegan

@Danetteb I reply a lot less often on Bsky. But that's mainly because I don't see the replies, don't pay attention. I see yours and a few others, unless I actually go look.

@realtegan

@GottaLaff I really appreciate your efforts.
@michaelgemar Thanks. I try. I really do.
@GottaLaff @julian thankful for all the posts you do and to be honest, having just a link means I only follow the ones I am particularly interested in reading.

@AndyStechishin Well yeah, because that's normal, lol. Thanks!

@julian

@GottaLaff @julian of course Whomp! Whomp! and Thud always get an immediaate click to the source

@AndyStechishin Hahahahah!! You look for the Thuds! I love that.

@julian

@GottaLaff

I follow you because you post facts. On the odd occasion you get taken in, you say so. Don't let the haters get you down!

@Babcia54 Thanks. Not so much haters as demanders. The one I quote posted was rude about it though.
@GottaLaff @Babcia54
You & your diligence are appreciated by so many on Fedi! Thank you!
@GottaLaff or do what I do: BS isnโ€™t my main platform but I am on it and โ€œsuper followโ€ a handful of BS posters, including you.
@JonChevreau Many here don't want to participate in Bsky.

@GottaLaff @JonChevreau

I will always be grateful to Mastodon, and I wish it had been able to become the main landing place for journalists and political/policy folks who wanted to foster robust discourse somewhere other than X, but Bluesky has become that place.

@DemDifference @GottaLaff @JonChevreau

For now. Let's leave a light on for them.

@GottaLaff Can't speak for anyone else, but I do see most of your bridged Bluesky posts! Thank you for being willing to share them here in the Fediverse, regardless of snafus over which you have no control. ๐Ÿ’™

As an aside, Happy Passover (I think I recall that you're Jewish, if not, apologies)!

@PamelaBarroway Thank you!

Yes, but not practicing Jew. Atheist Jew but happy Passover anyway! We always celebrated when the family was around.
