Bridges are the diplomatic solution, but when you look at the protocol specs, you quickly find that they are deliberately designed to be incompatible to make intereroparability technically impossible.

@raccoon so we ignore this mess and push the content across with a bridge - we make the protocols into "dumb pipes" this is the path of the #OMN

I understand this is the best of the BAD solutions, but it's easy and most impotently "permissionless" so we can seed diversity. From this we might get somewhere not #blocking

Well, the problem is that ActivityPub is event driven: something happens -> Agents send each other notifications about it.

This means, a bridge would have to be build from both sides. I doubt, this is what Blusky wants.

the key part is #4opens we don't have to ask its #FOSS and yes not saying you are not right, the current non federated #bluesky would be pointless.

#Nostr all ready has a working 2 way bridge to #activertpub, I am transparently reading and replying to #Nostr users.
