Updated my code for Bluesky for the recent API endpoint changes. Looking forward to enabling this for Micro.blog folks.

What's the API like?

@davew The part of the API I'm using is documented here, called XRPC. General purpose like XML-RPC, but JSON. There are "lexicons" that describe how the various Bluesky endpoints work. (I'll have to blog about it, it took some work to unravel.)

@manton

thanks! very interesting. i'd love to get an overview. obviously the big question is how does it compare to activitypub.

@davew Yes, and for now my use-case is simple: cross-post from a blog to Bluesky. I'm not attempting following users between platforms on the scale of ActivityPub. I expect that is more complicated and I'm not sure it's finalized yet in Bluesky.

@manton Micro.blog as a single point of access towards multiple federated protocols sounds like a very interesting (albeit niche) thing!

@petar We are going to add Bluesky to our list of cross-posting services, so Micro.blog can copy your blog posts there.

@manton this mean people here are in the Bluesky beta? Are there invites to share? Regardless, thank you staying on top of this Manton!
