Bridgy Fed, a bridge between the Fediverse and other protocols such as BlueSky, is using an opt-out model and that raises a lot of discussion (github.com)

The reality is that a bunch of the content creators are here rather than on a centralised billionaire/VC backed platform. Surely if those content creators wanted their content on BlueSky they would post there. I know for example that I personally declined invitations, so why would I want my toots and Lemmy posts there?

You signed up for federation when you joined lemmy and mastodon. Your posts federating to other servers should not be a surprise.

To ActivityPub services. BlueSky doesn't support the protocol

So if/when they do this is a non issue, right? Or have they confirmed they won't ever be supporting activitypub?

BlueSky employs a competing protocol

Not true. You’re pushing content to Diaspora, hubzilla, PubCrawl, Streams and many other protocols that are bridged to ActivityPub

I'm not a fan of Bluesky, but to call it "centralized billionaire backed platform" makes no sense anymore. They are opening for federation already, and Jack Dorsey is now just shilling Bitcoin on Nostr.
