It’s better than X because there’s no nonsense right-wing political propaganda and shitty CEO, and it’s better than Mastodon because it’s more user friendly.
It is meant to be decentralised, but most people aren’t creating their own instances.

This is achieved through centralization. There’s a reason nobody else is hosting their own PDS. You use the bluesky app, on the bluesky website, through the bluesky servers.
Once you get passed the massive hurdle of making an account (no different than when we all collectively figured out email), it’s the exact same UI and experience.
ATP is also federated, and the model is much more scalable than ActivityPub. You’re already free to host all of your Bluesky account and all your posts on your own PDS. They’re opening up the other services to federation as they reach maturity.
I swear, we’re just witnessing the next power-grab by people richer than us.
Anyone who isn’t advocating for Mastodon, the federated option, is either a fool or being fooled.
Mastodon is trash
So is twitter and all the other clones.
That’s still not an excuse to go with the centralized option when centralization is what put people in this position.
Bluesky is better and decentralised
How is it better?
If it’s really decentralized, where are the other instances?

So… censorship and not-actually-being-decentralized are your reasons for liking it more?
Err… don’t be fooled. The CEO of bluesky is only in this to make money. If he could do what musk does, odds are he would.
There’s no censorship the right-wingers haven’t moved to bluesky yet.
Still better than X and Mastodon, so yes.
You mean aggressively lobby for right wing takeover and attempt to influence international governance? I have my doubts

How so?
Why are they waiting? Why should we trust them?
