      Basically the bridge listens for new posts on both services and copies them as needed. Think of it like a bot on Reddit or lemmy that automatically posts stuff on behalf of someone else.

      Does that make sense?

        That makes sense, thank you!

        How do you install a bridge on Android? Using the bridge, could you theoretically link a WhatsApp account from a different phone?
