Lol trying to figure out how to post to Bluesky from Fedilab. So far no dice but I do have the account connected via your friend's plugin. I can do it from browser. Hmmm.

No big if I can't figure it out, I don't mind going back and forth between platforms. I reeeeeally like the privacy options over here.

It's actually a plugin on the Friendica side. Go to [Userpic]->Settings->Social Networks->Bluesky Import/Export to set it up. Then you can set it to post all your stuff both places by default if you want to, and your Bluesky feed will show up in your Friendica feed and be interactable.

I would recommend unpinning the "Discovery" Feed from your Bluesky account or you'll get all that crap here too.

Oh yeah, I did the plugin setup. But I didn't set it up to post everything from here to Bluesky by default. If I do that and then post something friends only here, will it cross post or ignore it? If you know lol. I mean I could just test it.

When you post on Friendica, there's a tab for permissions. IF the post is public, there's a checkbox to post to Bluesky. I presume that the default setting will just auto-check that box, so nothing other than public posts would be cross-posted.

I have my posts set to default public, so I have to set the permissions if I want to be private. I think the default in Friendica is to automatically set posts to friend permissions. These privacy folks go to GREAT LENGTHS to make sure nobody accidentally makes a public post they intended to be private.

I don't see this tab in Fedliab 🤬. There's an eyeball button that allows you to set something regarding sensitive content, but I don't understand what it's doing. I'll have to look it up.

Under Account Settings->Security and Privacy, you can set your default post visibility to public.
