A Short PSA: Bridging Bluesky and a More Private Internet
I put together a short 2‑minute PSA podcast episode about something I’ve been thinking a lot about lately: how to bridge the gap between open social protocols and a more private, ethical internet.
On Mosslet, we’ve released Bluesky interoperability into the core Timeline experience. That means:
You can import your posts from Bluesky into Mosslet.
You can export your Mosslet posts back out.
And if you want, you can cross‑post a public update on Mosslet directly to your Bluesky account.
Why does this matter?
Because I don’t think the future is “everyone moves to one perfect platform.” I think the future looks more like small, privacy‑respecting spaces that still talk to the wider open ecosystem—without forcing you back into surveillance‑style trade‑offs.
Bluesky’s protocol is a big step toward a more open social web. Mosslet is my attempt to meet that halfway: keep the benefits of open, portable identity and content, while insisting that your day‑to‑day social life and journaling can remain encrypted and private by default.
If that sounds interesting, the PSA is just a couple of minutes, and it walks through why we’re doing this and how it fits into Mosslet’s bigger goal of building software that’s for people, not for data extraction.
And if you want to try it yourself, Mosslet has a 14‑day free trial with full access (no credit card required): https://mosslet.com
As always, I’d love to hear what you think—especially if you care about open protocols and a more private internet.
