i genuinely don't have a PROBLEM with Mastodon in that I'm glad it exists, is doing other stuff with federated social media, and that some people seem to really like using it. it is just not For Me and I am not interested in trying it again (because I like Bluesky! Bluesky is enjoyable for me!)

The main argument I hear from Mastodon proponents is that nobody can come and buy it like it happened to Twitter, while this can happen to Bluesky. I have zero background to actually understand how Bluesky functions "in the background," but I also don't feel like this is what users care about much

Bluesky is also federated social media (albeit not as fully federated as Mastodon is today) and is taking some active steps towards true decentralization and ensuring that the entire network can't be bought and destroyed by somebody evil.
