Hey all 👋🏼, Anuj here from @anewsocial, the organization that manages Bridgy Fed.
We recently added a new feature to Bridgy Fed that folks have asked us for [1] - an easy way for admins to automatically bridge their new users and give them custom domain handles on Bluesky. We wanted to take a moment to explain the philosophy behind it, and how we’re trying to do this the right way, keeping consent front-of-mind. 1/10 🧵
It’s not decentralized though. The way it’s written requires you to host everything in bluesky along with everything on your own instance to be fully autonomous. That makes it impossible for normal people to host it.
Not a fan of BlueSky and their proprietary platform
The AT protocol is open, though

So is the rest of it lmao
Bluesky is open source.
