for archival reasons (lol)

• Original script https://gist.github.com/espimarisa/9e7d865f4c9e7f3f780e1a9a35cd171d from https://bsky.app/profile/espi.me/post/3lbtlmknwek2a
• Also used https://gist.github.com/JeremyTBradshaw/10c67244cf380a66b6ca0e59139cd11d for converting secure string to plain text (for Powershell versions below 7.0)

Prerequisites

• Discord token, you can get it via this guide: https://gist.github.com/MarvNC/e601f3603df22f36ebd3102c501116c6
• You might have to close / kill running Discord clients.

Instructions

1. Run the following snippet in Powershell(!) to run the script and follow the instructions:

If the script ran successfully, you should've gotten a link that starts with https://bsky.social/oauth/authorize.

2. Open the link and follow the instructions.

3. ???

4. Profit!
   

Caveats

• While the Bluesky Connection will display on official Desktop/Browser client, it might not display on official Android/iOS client.
