A New Social is a new non-profit that wants to help bridge platforms
The group wants to advocate for users.
The non-profit, called A New Social, is being headed up by Ryan Barrett, the founder of Bridgy Fed, and Anuj Ahooja, an engineering leader and writer. But they’ve already identified A New Social’s first project: Barrett’s own Bridgy Fed, which you can use to have your Bluesky posts appear on ActivityPub-based platforms like Mastodon ( aka the fediverse) and vice versa. “Us sitting in the middle puts us in a place where we have to be loud when they are not keeping those promises up.” He says that Bridgy Fed is an “implementation of a larger user advocacy problem that we’re trying to solve.”
