What would be the impact of bridges in the future? Such as Bluesky's ATProtocol bridging with Fediverse's ActivityPub? (self.general)

Wanted to create a simple discussion around the impact of bridging Federated server providers, in light of the Threads app launch. As I feel Meta, is not the only stakeholder in "Big Socials" entering this sphere.

I am still rather new to the modern culture of Federation. So would also like to see what the general audience thinks about such a topic.

I for one would love bridges to those as well as other sites like hacker news and lobst.rs or just pump rss feeds into an instance. This is common practice in the matrix community - why not here?

I just thinking about HackerNews the other day. Merging that community to tech focused communities/instances would be great. I have felt they have done a good job in moderating content/internet points over the years as well.

In my opinion, It would be less hassle if some HN person just set up a lemmy node. It is less code to maintain which means less complexity and less attack surface. Either that or just use a bot to pull the articles here and have a discussion here.

I agree they do a good job moderating it, I think that like here, they are generally very civil.
