While I'm beyond appreciative that Bridgy exists, and I have both of my accounts bridged to boot, man I wish there hadn't been such a backlash to the idea initially. I mean, I absolutely do get the privacy angle but how amazing would it have been if we didn't have to go convince people we wanna follow to go sign up for bridging themselves? If that bridge had been totally transparent in use, just as if it were just another instance full of users? I know people who are interested in the additional functionality and privacy options that the Fediverse can offer, but they refuse to leave BlueSky because it's still too difficult to follow their friends through the bridge.
