@ikuturso Those just literally are starting to accept new users widely, you could say in its infancy ActivityPub looked the same.
It's apples and oranges comparing the two in terms of what's going to happen next.
One thing i can assure you is, many of those 6 million active users there would rather use #Bluesky than #Twitter and they have zero interest in coming to #Mastodon.
I just spent 2 years on Bluesky while also still being here on another instance and saw convos daily on both.

@ikuturso The appeal doesn't entirely hinge on Bluesky the instance, far from it especially after recent events involving the CEO Jay Graber pissing many off.
#Blacksky is running several #PDS instances, there are others including one for #Transgender people spinning up by others...
People are becoming more aware of options there and choosing them, as that increases with additional servers - #Bluesky as an instance will certainly mean less to #ATProto beyond work developing the protocol.

@ikuturso I agree with you about #Bluesky going about #decentralization wrong in many ways, but there are people spinning up #PDS instances w/ #ATProto and that's not had time to flourish yet aside from Bluesky the centralized instance.
I don't believe ATProto has a limited time available and again, we're talking about protocols and growth...
Saying ATProto is in danger because of Bluesky is like saying ActivityPub is in danger because of Mastodon Social for example. They are only parts of it

@ikuturso @keith @homegrown Because of this i believe, going back to the OP here we're responding on... #Mastodon instances defederating i think hurts this network over all.
I would also argue that growth overall for both #Bluesky and Mastodon could increase should more people #bridge accounts between the two.

@ikuturso @keith @homegrown You cared enough to argue in a response claiming #Bluesky is dying or stagnant and Mastodon isn't having problems simply because they haven't made a pact with venture capitalists.
So if the response now is it doesn't matter to people on #Mastodon if it's losing users i don't understand why you'd even bother to respond.

I bridge my account to #Bluesky because more people are there and #Mastodon is losing active users.
I'm not worried about being able to connect with others, but perhaps those here living in this bubble might want to consider what defederating on a network that is losing active users does to the health of the network and future of it for anyone wanting to come here.

@rbreich It’s a good day for the democracy. 👍🏻
That gives hope.
But I would really appreciate if you would post the text here in the #Fediverse as well instead of a screenshot of your post on your #Bluesky account.
Because the Fediverse is the democratic alternative to #Twitter and BlueSky
