So I have blocked Bridgy Fed account (in other words: disabled my bridge account). I never get any information about replies and about 1% of my follower base use it. It's more of a nuisance than a benefit in its current state.

@rolle can you maybe explain the nuisance a bit? Bridgy is blocked here but there’s a request to unblock.

- Bluesky's character limit is 300. Mastodon's default is 500. My instance has 10000. So practically all posts get cut off.
- Profile character limit is even less, so profile description gets cut off.
- Bridgy Fed is currently opt-in and is very difficult for Bluesky folks to understand and enable, so only a few actually use it so I can see their posts in Mastodon.
- Some posts that I have I do not want to be seen on Bluesky's side.
- When I don't see the replies it makes me look like a dick that doesn't reply to anyone on the other side. Because people can follow my Mastodon account on Bluesky without bridging their Bluesky accounts to Mastodon.This frustrates the heck out of me, so better to just disable it.
