Social media should be centered around people, not platforms. Let's build bridges, not walls. That's why we're building Bridgy Fed and Bounce.

Long-form is an important medium, and one that's growing on the open social web. We think this is a great start toward bridging ecosystems further than just microblogging on Bridgy Fed.
We can't wait to see what you write, no matter which platform you use.
3/3 🧵
If your Atmosphere (Bluesky, Blacksky, Eurosky, Northsky, etc.) account is bridged, all of your standard.site publications and documents will bridge over to the Fediverse and the web!
We also make sure your standard.site's reference bsky posts reach Fediverse microblogging platforms as Notes with a link to the blog post to keep the experience the same across ecosystems! Similarly, Fediverse reader platforms like WordPress and Ghost will get the full article.

Today, Bridgy Fed begins expanding beyond microblogging, starting with long-form 📜↔️📃
If your Fediverse blog or website is bridged, your posts will be bridged to the Atmosphere, as standard.site documents!
You'll need to take steps to be indexed by major platforms across the Atmosphere, and we've outlined them in the post and our docs: https://blog.anew.social/long-form-comes-to-bridgy-fed/
1/3 🧵
Up until now, Bridgy Fed has only supported the bridging of microblogging content. Even when we bridged articles from the web or from Article types in ActivityPub, ATProtocol-based microblogs would only receive a link to the article rather than the content of the long-form post. One of the main reasons

Our very own @snarfed.org sat down with @pfefferle to chat about the open social web, interoperability, and building bridges 👏🏼
I sat down with @snarfed.org to talk about his work around the #fediverse, the #indieweb and the #atmosphere including (fed.)brid.gy and @anewsocial

We're so excited for AltStore's launch into the open social web!
Starting today, every app listed on the AltStore will send updates to the Fediverse and bridge those updates to the Atmosphere via Bridgy Fed 🌐🚀
And there's even more goodies in this release 👀
Congrats to the AltStore team!
Remember to look for a "respond" link next to your Bridgy Fed DM notifications to like, respond, repost, or block a comment or mention!

Last year, we launched a feature for Bridgy Fed that sent a DM of an hourly digest of interactions that we couldn't bridge back to your native platform. While that gave you visibility into interactions you normally wouldn't have, you still had to have an account in the other ecosystem
