https://fedifinder.glitch.me/ now finds your Twitter contacts on Bluesky as well. Currently quite basic by checking for bsky.app or bsky.social links. I started with DNS TXT lookups, which worked great until I tested it with thousands of accounts which triggered the DDoS protection.

I know hashtags aren't a thing here (I think), but putting out the #rstats signal just in case so you don't miss this opportunity to learn from one of my faves 👇
