a lot written about its lack of quote-tweets but a big feature that mastodon missed that bluesky already has is "i can easily click on someone's profile and quickly follow a bunch of people they are following" which is really vital for this initial network building

@mtsw I definitely agree that Mastodon should be focusing hard on these UX paper cuts but that said Bluesky has a lower degree of difficulty by not actually being a federated platform at this point.

Starting with good UX and then adding federation on top might turn out to be a good strategy; or perhaps the federation part will never happen and Bluesky will just be the new Twitter, same as the old Twitter. 🤷‍♂️
