    mastodon blew it by attacking people who had legitimate concerns about the service during the first migration.

      Yep. And also, like I said in https://privacy.thenexus.today/bluesky-atmosphere-fediverse/

      For one thing, most of the people who came to Mastodon in late 2022 didn’t have good experiences … so didn’t stay in the Fediverse.6 Flash forward to 2024, and Mastodon still hasn’t addressed the reasons why.

      Bluesky, by contrast, has put a lot of work into onboarding and usability – as well as giving people better tools protect themselves and others, and find and build communities … So today, BTS ARMY and millions of Brazilians, and everybody else looking for a Twitter alternative are more likely to have a good experience on Bluesky than Mastodon.

      Mastodon isn’t a person. So I don’t know who you are talking about when you say ‘mastodon was attacking people’. I certainly didn’t see anything like that. Perhaps you have an example link for context?

      that and the whole “learn in your own” part of it.

      I use bSky quite a bit more than my mastodon account, it made more sense to operate and had better documentation/help getting started, so I could use existing muscle memory on it and loo kthimgsu p if needed
