Getting Started
BuddyBridge is a Python webserver that helps you find Facebook friends on BlueSky using Selenium and ChromeDriver. Follow the steps below to install and run the application locally for security reasons.
Note, the app is a little slow at the moment. I'm working on improving the performance. It takes about a minute to get your Facebook friends, and then it takes about 5 seconds per friend to search Bluesky. I think there are ways to speed this up, but that is future work. This is a work in progress.
Note #2, I am developing a version of this app in javascript using Svelte + CapacitorJS + ElectronJS. This should be ready soon. Then users can simply install an app instead of doing commandline stuff.
