Bluesky Is Plotting a Total Takeover of the Social Internet

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Kinda? This is @andrewrgross tooting at you from Mastodon, but I had to search for your address to find this comment. And I couldn't find it from a different server. So... yes, but actually no.
Still, I find it fascinating the degree that they're connected. I'm gonna go see if this showed up on Lemmy now.
Your toot is here. Can you see my reply in Mastodon?
@60d
Yes!
I just "favorited" it and clicked reply. I believe the reply shows up as a reply, and the favoriting action looks like an upvote.
It's kinda silly. Like... is this useful? Unclear. But the ability for me to interact across two very different platforms seems like a technical achievement to me.

Also, I just took a screen cap and I'm embedding it in a reply toot. If this works, you can see what this conversation looks like in Mastodon. I'm interested to see if this shows up in Lemmy.
Yup, I can see the screenshot and the up votes, so it was already more integrated than I thought. Cool!
There really are dozens of us!
This thread exchange made me smile, and I had to show it to one of my partners while giving the rundown about Activity Pub.
This shit is so neat.
Thanks, I think it's fun too. Interesting to see the current level of integration between platforms. Thanks for also giving me something to smile about 😊
