Using

  • Have you blocked the Bridgy Fed bot account? If so, that disables the bridge for your account. Un-block it and then follow it again to re-enable the bridge.
  • Bridgy Fed currently doesn't bridge posts if they're over two weeks old. This is largely because some fediverse servers, notably Mastodon, don't fully honor backdated posts and instead serve them in feeds as if they were new.
  • If you're looking at your bridged account in the fediverse, Bridgy Fed only delivers your posts to fediverse instances where you have at least one follower. (This is how the fediverse works in general.) -
  • If you're on Bluesky, do you have the "hide account in logged out view" setting enabled? Bridgy Fed interprets that as opting out and won't bridge your account while it's on.
  • If you're on the fediverse, your server might be blocking or limiting Bridgy Fed. Check your server's About page to see if bsky.brid.gy or brid.gy are in the Moderated servers section. If they are, you can ask your server admin to reconsider, and include a link to this page for more details.
  • If you're on the fediverse, and your username - ie the first part of your handle, before the middle `@` character - begins or ends with _, -, or ~, or contains any non-alphanumeric characters, ie anything other than A-Z a-z 0-9 _ - ~, Bridgy Fed can't currently bridge your account. Sorry. This may change in the future; follow the GitHub issue for details.
