We have cross-posting tools for copying our posts from the to Titter or vice-versa, and the same with the (). Maybe we could also have cross-posting tools for communicating between and ( and ), , and , and any other federated social web servers that don't bridge to AP (eg any that get built using )?

@strypey Yeah, in particular. Really, really weird that they bridge to Twitter but not Mastodon and repeatedly claim it's too hard.

@vik Wolf and I have been talking about the possibility of a client (whether a native or web client) providing users with a unified interfaces for multiple federated accounts/ features. See the thread branching off from here:

Allied thought: There's a /RSS tool, and a /RSS tool. So if you point them at each other...

@vik @strypey where did you see that "diaspora" (whoever that is) claimed that bridging to mastodon is too hard?

@fla I'd say @vik was thinking of this:

That and discussions in the dev repository. I did a demo push notification for Android too, which was also not viewed on as being a priority.
Right now Dandelion needs regular cache flushes to login and I'm getting a wee bit irate with Dispora at times.

I know people reluctant to move to #Pixelfed because they lack a cross-posting tool to Instagram. Any idea guys ?

@bob @vik @fla @strypey Deleting one’s Instagram account is certainly an option.

@chartier deleting an account on any platform is never completely impossible, but it's much easier for those of us with low or no investment in that platform. I feel more comfortable using the and practically ignoring Titter *because* I'm able to cross-post from to an account there. Otherwise I'd feel the need to have a presence on there, to make sure advocacy is not self-marginalizing us.

@strypey @bob @vik @fla That's a great perspective. Thank you.
