How to move your followers from Twitter/X to Bluesky
The great exodus begins.
If you have decided to join Bluesky, for whatever reason and you’d like to find the same followers as you had on X/Twitter, read on…
Many of us had spent years building up our following and we’d like to keep the same followers and friends. Is this possible? Yes, here’s how…
There’s a helpful add-on for your internet browser that will go through your Twitter followers and find the same followers on Bluesky. It will even automatically follow them so they can follow you back. It’s very easy to use, and I’ve spent the afternoon testing it. Out of about 25,000 Twitter Followers, I’ve managed to find and follow about 2,000 of them using this tool.
The tool’s name is Sky Follower Bridge. You can find it on GitHub or in the addons section of your browser. There are add-ons for Firefox and Chrome, and the Chrome add-on also works on Opera.
All you need to do is…
1: Grab the addon and install it…
2: Press ALT + B on your Twitter/X Followers screen and enter your Bluesky Login details.
