I’m wondering if that means there may be a functional difference between blocking the bridge vs adding the #nobridge tag?

I didn’t knew this thing that you can’t migrate your follower from mastodon to friendica 😐
From mastodon to pleroma (and i think also misskey) it works.

@luca@sironi.tk @informapirata@mastodon.uno Some platforms have specifically gone out of their way to support Mastodon’s non-standard functions… that doesn’t make them standard or a platform as deficient for not supporting them.
A lot of that has to do with the relationship between them, where many of those are newer platforms inspired by and emulating Mastodon. Friendica on the other hand is one of the old school platforms that looooong predates Mastodon, so supporting any of their non-standard stuff is a monumental task (it’s easy to support something when you’re starting from scratch)
@luca I understand your difficulties, but always remember that Friendica is compatible with ActivityPub BUT it works with a different protocol and its profiles are particular objects that contain a kind of unique key
@shiri
@informapirata@mastodon.uno @luca@sironi.tk it used to work with a different protocol, Friendica has been ActivityPub based longer than Mastodon has been alive.
Always remember that Mastodon is well established to be a poor neighbor in the AP community, not supporting the full spec and often implementing their own non-standard solutions.
@shiri@foggyminds.com I’m actually pretty sure Friendica put up Activitypub a few months later than mastodon, but otherwise I agree with what you say.

Well, migrating followers (just followers) should really be a standard feature of ActivityPub then.
One that must be implemented by all the supposed AP compatible projects
Nobody is gonna buy the theoretical reach of all the same people, like real freedom to change fediverse provider.

@luca@sironi.tk In reality, when it comes to migrations, Friendica does much more than any other ActivityPub-compatible platform, such as importing all the messages and contents of the old profile…
Friendica cannot be responsible for Mastodon’s flaws 🤷🏽♂️
