@figgystar.dog Rar! I used to follow you on Twitter, but I'm one of those weird turbonerds who prefers Mastodon over Bluesky. Would you be willing to enable Bridgy, a 2-way bridge between Masto & Bsky, for your Bsky acct so I could follow you from my AD (@afterdark.baral.fyi)?

Is it okay if I screenshot this and share on Mastodon? 100% agree with your take and I'd love to share this with my friends over there.
Yay, thank you!! ^.=.^ Feel free to ping me if you have any questions about it, I've been using it for a good while now and I'm pretty familiar with how it works :) Totally get why you switched over here but I've missed seeing your posts in my timeline!

@rinzy.art Rinnnzzzyyyyy!!! Hey I know you still post art to your Mastodon, but otherwise it's pretty quiet from you over there and I miss seeing you in my timeline. Would you be willing to enable Bridgy for your Bsky acct so I could follow you from my main over there? More info & docs: fed.brid.gy
Hey Bluesky friends! If you're reading this on the butterfly site, please make sure you're also following @ap.brid.gy! I can't follow you back or interact with your posts without this because this account is actually bridged from #Mastodon via #BridgyFed.
More info on #Bridgy: https://fed.brid.gy
There's a couple different options - one is going to fed.brid.gy/login, signing in with the Bluesky option, then ensuring the "Bridging" toggle is set to on. The other option would be to follow @ap.brid.gy. May not be a bad idea to do both just to make sure. :)
your thoughts in my timeline on Fedi! Bridgy basically just acts like a two-way mirror between Bluesky and the Fediverse, except it only works for those who've explicitly opted in to using it. More info: fed.brid.gy [2/2]
@frameacloud.bsky.social Rar! Would you be willing to consider enabling Bridgy Fed for your Bluesky account? I hope the request is not unwelcome, but I noticed that I hadn't seen any new posts from you on Mastodon in a while and that your focus seems to have shifted over here. I miss seeing [1/2]
You're very welcome! ^^
One final tip btw, if you didn't already know about it: since you now have both a Bluesky and a Mastodon account, and (i assume) you also post to galleries like FA, you might find www.postybirb.com helpful. It'll help automate the process of uploading your art everywhere! :)
Meow is significantly more active (about 6x more) but that really only matters for the live feeds section. Those should be good choices either way tho! ^.=.^
Wherever you decide to move, if you want to transfer your followers to your new account, follow this guide: fedi.tips/transferring...
So whatever instance you land on, if (and only if) you can afford to do so, it's not a bad idea to consider donating toward server costs from time to time. But yeah, socel is a decent choice. You'll still be able to follow anyone you want, just the live feeds section will have less furry content.
I follow one or two people over there. It seems to be a decently run instance! Though I will say that finances for almost any Mastodon instance can be a potential issue, because most Mastodon instances are being run by one person or a small group of people as a community benefit, not a big company.

So I made a Mastodon account recently and I have no idea what's going on but I do be learning

Happy to help!! I'm a massive nerd for this stuff so I apologize if I'm overwhelming with details, but I hope this helps you have a comfy experience on Mastodon! And please feel free to ask if you have any other questions, either here or over there! ^.=.^
biggest furry ones are meow.social, bark.lgbt, and tech.lgbt. All three have good moderation and have rules requiring CWs for NSFW stuff - and their "Live feeds" should be quite busy with interesting content to discover too! If those aren't your jam, that furry fediverse site has other options.
But yeah, otherwise it's kind of like how adult content is handled here - you'll want to filter it out if you don't wanna see it. But filters like that will let you join any instance you like while still being able to curate what you see in your timeline. As for instance choices - some of the >>
My NSFW filter on my main account is set up with these settings, and it catches nearly all NSFW content. This should be a good starting point for you! If you use this & don't want to see any of the NSFW content warnings in your feed *at all*, simply change the "Filter action" to "Hide completely".
system, which you can set up to hide NSFW content from your feed completely.
These links will explain more in-depth about how this works:

*any* reason you'd like! Not all instances require their users to use CWs, but there's a general expectation (especially among the furry instances) to use them for adult/nsfw content, at minimum. CW'd posts are hidden with a warning by default. Mastodon also has a powerful and flexible filtering >>
