Bluesky and Mastodon users split reading and posting across apps

People active on Bluesky and Mastodon want to read and publish across both networks without juggling separate apps or manually repeating posts. One user specifically wants Bluesky in Ivory, while others ask for cross-posting, conversation bridging, and importing old posts. The requests point to fragmented workflows, though a single product would need to handle differences in platform features and account identity carefully.

For people active on Bluesky and Mastodon. Mentioned from Dec 2023 to Jan 2026 on Bluesky.

  1. Is there an app like #Ivory for BlueSky? I love Mastodon so much but I want to read what people are posting on BlueSky now as well, ideally with one app like Ivory
  2. OMG yes @paul.tapbots.com please make Ivory work with Bluesky!! Would happily pay extra for that feature. To have both mastodon and Bluesky in a single app would be….awesome
