Bluesky Bridge Posts are being Delayed

If you are using the Bluesky bridge, while Bluesky -> Fediverse is still working, bridging posts from Fediverse->Bluesky is severely delayed. You might not know already, BlueSky got an influx of new users in recent weeks, and of course overloaded.

As a result, Bluesky apparently paused ingesting new posts from all federated Personal Data Stores (any PDS that is not hosted on the official server), but hopefully it will resume soon.

We will update this post when this issue is resolved. Note that this does not affect seeing posts from other Bluesky users that you follow.

Update: This issue with the Bluesky relays might get resolved this weekend.

Heard from the Bluesky team today, they hope to get this sorted out and fediverse => Bluesky bridging working again sometime this weekend.

Sorry for the downtime, everyone. Thank you for your patience!
