Bridgy Fed, a bridge between the Fediverse and other protocols such as BlueSky, is using an opt-out model and that raises a lot of discussion (github.com)

mastodon users continuing to show why mastodon will never reach mass appeal.

complaining about a tool that makes posts based on an open protocol that allows them to be shared across networks is bonkers.

this is probably the best tool that we'll have that will make social media actually fun to use again since twitter ruined it and segregated every service. if it gets ruined by going to an explicit opt-in service because of the loud minority, i'm gonna be so sad.
