I mean, Bluesky is essentially a Twitter replacement, so it's not like many people are going to be on there for tech/FOSS news. Every user on Mastodon knows what the Fediverse is, which means they're disproportionately more likely to care about FOSS and tech, therefore they're gonna spread the word more. Especially since most Fediverse users know the negatives of being on centralized social media, so they won't make a Bluesky account because they have a Fediverse account that will never be stuck on a enshittified platform. Therefore all the tech nerds are here instead of Bluesky anyway.

We have tech nerds. We don't have celebrities and "hit tweets"/jokes/memes that are getting screenshotted and dispersed to millions. Which is both a positive, but also a negative. Fediverse could do with more silly "hit tweets" (toots? posts.) that encourage people to join. ~~I just want fanartists personally~~
