Bridgy Fed made a splash earlier this week by announcing its latest progress in connecting the Fediverse to Bluesky and Nostr. Sadly, not everyone was welcoming.

Fediverse isn't for privacy or to get your content siloed, it's main purpose is to ... federate with other communities, send all of the public data to other servers.
If people don't want that, they should use a good old forum, not a fediverse social network.

Sadly, not everyone was welcoming.

They can cry about it. Corporations can hire a ton of lawyers and scrape Fediverse in whatever way they want anyway. The bullying only sabotages legitimate and useful tools by indie devs.
