Bluesky app for @mastodon@mastodon.social? (fedia.io)

This might sound wild or controversial, but has anyone thought about using the bluesky app and adapt it to work with the mastodon API? By this way making it easier for more people?

Re: 4

No app for Bluesky will help with this, because the purpose for the client ("app") is to use the API (a Bluesky one right now). And Mastodon's API provides exactly these not-federating like numbers - the problem you actually try to solve.
The number of likes and boosts has to be fetched directly from an original instance. Moshidon for Android does already like this and Fedilab for Android allows to fetch an entire conversation.
Bluesky clients have no concept for this they needed it.
