Introducing Bounce, a tool to move your following between Bluesky and Mastodon

A big development that showed the possibility of Open Social Web was unveiled at the online conference on Thursday FediformThe

The Manufacturer Of Bridge fedThe tool that is developed by connecting to the decentralized open social networks such Bounce It allows users to transfer their social network followers to networks powered by various protocols.

This is an important step towards creating Open Social Web as a more effective alternative to lock-in ecosystems provided by Tech Giants such as Meta, Snap, Google, Tickets and X-which you can be able to delete your account and export your data to a new app.

Today, Mastodon, Blocuski and other social services that are driven to their protocols (activities and it are protocols respectively) allow users to remove their accounts into their protocol network.

This means that a Mastoadon user can Transfer their account to another Mastodon serverWhen BlueSky Allows users to move their account and data From a personal data server (PDS) to anotherThe (Second is still working on progress because you can move out of PDS in Bloosky but can’t go back to it!)

However, users could not remove their accounts or take them from one network to another.

Now Says a new social led by a non -profitThe manufacturers of the Bridge Fed have created technology that will make this type of migration possible.

The technology is based on the Bridge Fed to allow their Blusky account to “move” to the bridge of their Mastoadon Profile (an account that listens for your Mastoadon posts and then the bluski followers can see them), then take the bridge account and “Remove” the user’s Master Road.

How all this works under the hood is technically complex because there are different ways to manage both platform migration. This is why the Bridge Fed has to act as an intermediary, the custom-bill for the purpose of the bridge and the movement enables the conversion to its own servers.

Currently a proof-off-concept, the technology will be launched in Bita in a few weeks-but not for casual user.

“I don’t want to go as far as I don’t want to go as far as it is a technology demo, but it was really important to prove it.”

There are currently some complications. You can’t go back to PDS in Bluusky because that technology has not yet been created to start the social network.

Also, if someone who is not bridged with blusky contacts your “move” account, you will not see once you are next to Mastodon. However, the team is working to develop a feature that will inform you about the off-bridge interaction, Ahuja said.

Furthermore, the bounce warns you that you follow how many people are not bridged, so if they ever bridge them, you can re -follow them.

In the end, the team hopes that the bounce technology will become obscure from the daily exposed social user, who can only decide what the app they want to use, and then through a few short steps to remove the following.

And today, the Bounce Blusky, Mastoadon and Pixelfade (an operation-based photo-based app) support the long-term target to support an open social platform and protocol, it is long-form blogging platform, even other networks on the ghost.

Ahuja explained, “We are trying to create an interface for the Open Social Web to conduct a few more stringent movements that you have to create.” “So, if you are dissatisfied with Blusky doing something – or if you are not dissatisfied, you feel that a platform next to the activity is doing something that you need to be true …[you could] Click these two in the bounce, “he added.

Bounce is a new social to third project. In addition to the Bridge Fed, the company has launched a single Settings page A few weeks ago that makes the preparation process easier for the bridge and lets you set a custom domain for your account.

A new social overall goal is to return the strength of the social networks to the people, not the platform manufacturers, with their tools that remove their accounts and their followers, and if a platform ever fails them somehow.

This goal of “not platform” is now MABLSED in March A new social sale such as T, hoodie, hat, cups and stickers that help in cashing its efforts, as well as PatronThe
