Pixelfed opens bridged BS account as JSON (blocked on Pixelfed) #1009

I found & followed my bridged BS account (@didiermary.fr@bsky.brid.gy) from Pixelfed. If I do a search for it in Pixelfed, it appears properly and I can view an empty profile (https://pixelfed.social/i/web/profile/692539545976601408). But on this empty profile, if I click on the settings cog and select "view remote profile", I get a JSON page: https://bsky.brid.gy/ap/did:plc:l2uv6ivfedhsjjmfmndx7p26

Interesting! And unfortunate. That's the ActivityPub actor. Looks like Pixelfed is using the actor's id as the remote profile URL, when it should be using url (https://bsky.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/didiermary.fr) instead, which works fine, and which other fediverse servers use. @dansup want us to file a Pixelfed bug?
