<p>Bridgy Fed is a decentralized social network bridge. It connects the fediverse, the web, and soon Bluesky/AT Protocol and Nostr. If you're on one of these networks, you can use Bridgy Fed to follow people on other networks, see their posts, and reply and like and repost them. Likewise, they'll be able to see you and your posts too.</p>

<p>When networks work differently, we try to preserve each network's behavior as much as possible. For example, following on the web is permissionless: you can follow any web site in a feed reader.

<p>Yes! By default, bridged fediverse handles use a subdomain of <code>brid.gy</code> as their instance, eg <code>@mysite.com@web.brid.gy</code>, but you can change the instance part to your own domain. It takes a bit of setup and technical know-how, but it's very doable.</p>

|

<p>First, your domain needs to serve HTTP requests. You don't need an actual web site, but you do need a minimal web server.<p>
|
||||
<p>Second, your web server needs to support SSL. Bridgy Fed uses your domain as your identity, so it depends on SSL to prove that you own it.</p>
|
||||
<p>Lastly, your web server needs to redirect a couple URL paths, including query parameters, to the same paths on <code>https://fed.brid.gy/</code>:</li>

<p>In the fediverse, it <a href="fediverse-servers">varies by server</a>. For Mastodon, <a href="#currently+following_you">open your list of followers in Bridgy Fed</a> and click on one to open their profile. Then, inside that Mastodon instance, <a href="discovery">search for your site's address</a>, click on it in the search results, and you'll see your fediverse profile and all of your posts that were delivered to that instance. This may not be all of them, depending on how long and when people on that instance have been following you.</p>

<p>Yes! Add this line of HTML to each post that you publish with Bridgy Fed and want to be searchable, replacing <code>[URL]</code> with that post's URL:</p>

<p>Yes! By default, your web site's bridged handle on other networks includes <code>web.brid.gy</code>, eg <code>@yoursite.com@web.brid.gy</code> on the fediverse, but you can use your own domain instead. <a href="#fediverse-enhanced">Here are instructions for fediverse handles.</a></p>

<li class="answer">
|
||||
<p>This is a great idea! <a href="https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/711">It's difficult to implement technically</a> - I'd need to build and run my own DNS server with custom behavior for resolving multi-level wildcard records - but it's definitely doable.</p>
|
||||
<p>However, servers and domains on other networks are very different from fediverse instances:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Bluesky <a href="https://atproto.com/guides/overview#federation">PDSes</a> are similar to shared web hosts; they're more generic and interchangeable than fediverse instances. They don't define affinity groups, user-visible communities, or moderation boundaries. It's not clear that they're useful for domain level federation decisions like fediverse instances are.</li>
|
||||
<li>IndieWeb sites generally represent a single person. They're often domains, but when they're subdomains, eg on <a href="https://wordpress.com/">wordpress.com</a> or <a href="https://blogspot.com">blogspot.com</a>, those are often shared hosting platforms that don't define clear communities or moderation boundaries either.</li>
|
||||
<li>Nostr users don't live on specific servers at all. They publish to <a href="https://nostr.com/relays">relays</a>, usually multiple at a time, and may change those relays often. Relays are primarily network infrastructure.</li>

|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>Another difficulty is that accounts on Bluesky and Nostr have long-lived, server-independent ids. If we used a Bluesky user's PDS domain in their fediverse handle, that handle would change every time they migrated to a new PDS, and they'd lose all of their followers and followings, even though their Bluesky account ID itself hadn't changed.</p>
