What made everyone move to Bluesky or Threads instead of Mastodon? (lemmy.zip)

What made everybody move from a corporate social media platform to another corporate social media platform instead of the fediverse?

After all, the Fediverse and Activitypub is much more mature than Bluesky and the copycat AT protocol or Threads and ... whatever they use.

decentralised

Is it really? I always heard that it's impossible to have another server independent from Bluesky's

Anyway, thank you for your comment!

In its developer’s blog, Bluesky stressed that “guardrails” are still in place. Most significantly, users can only self-host their own accounts for now, and in the next phase, self-hosted servers will initially be limited to 10 accounts each, with rate limits on usage.

Yeah I’m self hosting. But the fact they are working towards it is what matters most. Bluesky has only been publicly available for a couple months at this point.
