I’ve updated our Mastodon and Bluesky cross-posting to have new options to control whether to backfeed replies to Micro.blog. It also now better respects the visibility of posts to avoid leaking semi-private posts outside of Mastodon. Screenshot of the setting:
@manton Cool! Thank you! Um, may I suggest a way to more easily identify where a post comes from in the timeline? Maybe an icon tag (Bluesky/Mastodon) or just a color stripe on a post? Or you can just ignore this :)
@Archimage Good idea. Usually you can tell if it’s from Bluesky because it’s a domain name, but this could be improved visually.
@manton oh that’s good. I still haven’t figured out if I like replies here or not, but I appreciate the option.
@manton what's the default? When i load the settings page both radio buttons are unselected. I select one but there's no save?
@john I just noticed there's an issue when there are multiple feeds. If you have multiple feeds, that might be what happened. I'll have it fixed shortly.

@manton thanks! I think I have one feed per blog but I might be missing something. I do have different destinations per blog
@manton thanks! Currently after being crossposted Bluesky replies are showing up on my blog, while Mastodon replies only as mentions. Is this behaviour correct? It would be nice to have all replies from my crossposted posts Bluesky and Mastodon appearing on the blog itself.
@manton Perhaps I’m missing something on this? In my sources feed, I’ve got options to post and get set for both Mastodon and Bluesky. I received a reply to a Mastodon toot that was created from a Mb post, but the comment is not showing up on the Mb post.
@jimmitchell Can you send me a link to the blog post and comment so I can troubleshoot with that? Maybe a reply isn't being wired up correctly.

Also, your reply to me above isn't showing in my Mentions feed... Let me know if you need more.
@manton Same issue as Jim
I see replies from Mastodon in micro.blog/mentions but it does not show up in my single post page. Only comments from microblog users show
