@jcutting @mekkaokereke I am not sure this is correct, mastodon was Eugen’s pet project and BlueSky was an offshoot of twitter funded by Dorsey with millions from the beginning. How exactly did mastodon have a head start. I do agree BlueSky gets a lot of things right and I do agree that many people are frustrated with mastodon but ultimately it is an open source project with the good and bad that comes from it. This is like comparing gimp with photoshop.
