Following Bluesky users from Micro.blog: manton.org

@manton This is a really cool feature, and I'm excited to see where this goes! I have been cross-posting my stuff to bluesky and honestly getting the most interaction there. Would be cool to see what is going on!

@manton This is great, thank you. Why not add the ability to follow any RSS feed too?

@manton Awesome. Does it work for all Bluesky users? I tried looking for kevinmkruse.bsky.social and couldn't find him.

@manton Cool!

@pratik I fixed that username and it's working now. Looks like that username had been searched for before this feature was fully implemented.

@moonmehta Following any RSS feed doesn't fit well with Micro.blog's focus on users right now. Maybe one day if we can sort out the UI.

@manton eeks! That was me yesterday.

@manton Can you do the same for tressiemcphd.bsky.social?

@manton Makes sense. Maybe the Reply and Conversation buttons get disabled on RSS feeds? Or these they can be added as separate Lists?

@manton don’t you take holidays?! Was this the super secret project? It’s an early Xmas present! 🎁 🎄

Would it be possible to map your own DID in settings and then enable search by handle that way?

Or letting micro.blog also search for Bluesky custom handles by using emoji modifier 🦋 before the username (🦋Starrwulfe.xyz)

@starrwulfe Not the secret stuff. And yeah, I should’ve taken more time off but plan to this week. 🎄

@manton nice.

Oh I edited my comment above and it hung on my phone. 😅

What do you think about those options?

@pratik Figured it out, that user has a protected account. So it can't be followed outside of Bluesky.
