You have to understand we are not normal users. Anyone even remotely interested in federated software are not normal users.

Bluesky may not have 57 third party apps and that’s why people are flocking to it. It’s easy. The signup process through the app involved no selecting of servers, no understanding of what it actually is under the hood, and users are greeted by a default algorithm that feels very much like old Twitter before Musk.

Basically, regular users do not care about the fediverse and just want a competent and polished app and site experience.
