I have no control over how they appear. I quote-post a lot, & that's how they show up, out of my control.

I click on the link every time, thanks. Keep 'em coming!
I do wish Bluesky had never given users the option of blocking people from not even seeing posts if not signed in. Self-limiting their audience makes no sense to me. But it's a minor annoyance overall.

@gghocket Much appreciated and I empathize.

2/ Adding, because someone always asks why I don’t originate my posts from Mastodon:
The main reason I’m over there to begin with is because that’s where my sources are. As I said in my reply to Crow, it was too overwhelming to keep duplicating my original posts from Bsky over here. (I’ve explained this before, a lot, but just in case you missed those.)

@GottaLaff Actually, I haven't seen any of your posts in my feed here in quite a while; this is literally the first.
I don't have a Bluesky account for two reasons:
1. I moved here full-time to get as far away from corporate interests as possible;
2. I will have no truck with Jack Dorsey. He sold out with Twitter, and he's also a proponent of AI generally, and AI being used to replace workforces in particular.

Thank you for posting so much of interest. I am so sorry you had this very petty annoyance directed at you.

Ah, well.... I blocked the bridge when it became clear the leadership of BS are scum - mostly to protect people here that I quote. So I don't actually get ANY of your bridged posts here...That's okay, though, because I read them in an RSS reader. It does mean I don't get to interact with you, which makes me sad, but that's a decision I made.
So... hey, keep doing what you're doing. We love you for it despite the tech issues and annoyances.

Laffy - As far as I can tell, you're not getting paid for the service you're providing, and neither am I. Which leaves me with a question mark floating over my head...
Anywho, for anyone who is reading this thread, I am trying to 'bridge' the gap a bit by replying to @GottaLaff 's posts with an image (jpg) of the linked B.S. post. Usually with a minimum of commentary, but I make no promises.
HTH

@GottaLaff @anewsocial sorry, I was kind of summoning them into the conversation.
@GottaLaff @anewsocial I looked over the GitHub issues for the bridge. I guess the problem is when you boost Bluesky content that is by someone who hasn't bridged their account. Interesting question!

@darth_hideout @GottaLaff
Huge dittoes to that !!!!
