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.

This is just the start of the work on mackinac.social, and we're really excited to see where it goes!
Making bridging more native blurs the line between technologies and lets people focus on their people.

For bridged posts that exceed the 300-character limit, you can view the full text from a “view more” button. On profiles you can also see the full text and handles display as the native handles.

In your feed, bridged posts show up with a little bridged icon and handles display the way they do on their native ecosystem. No weird long Bridgy Fed handles!
If you view a bridged profile you get the switcher to jump to the other protocol and see the native profile.

Mackinac, built by @johnwhiteside, is an open social web client that's thinking multi-protocol and bridging-first! John's added a *ton* of unique features we've never seen before, so we wanted to outline a few of them in a thread 👇🏼

Got the blues because your Fediverse posts sent through Bridgy Fed that are over 300 characters get truncated on the Atmosphere, and they have to click into a link?
Well, good news: starting today, deck.blue, a TweetDeck-like client for Bluesky, shows the *full* post from over the bridge - no truncation, no links!

v2.20 is up! - Bookmarks from Bluesky now supported - Verification badges (can be turned off!) - @ap.brid.gy support (shows full text from ActivityPub when clicking bridged posts) - Video player fixes - Other minor fixes - Roadmap update Please take a look at the full post below for more info! https://www.patreon.com/posts/154420498?pr=true
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.
