I've had a lot of people ask how BlueSky compares to Mastodon and the Fediverse. I've tried to make the answer as simple and easy to understand as possible:

🦋 BlueSky is designed to give corporations and wealthy people full control of the network. All of its traffic has to flow through expensive-to-run corporate relays.

The Fediverse is designed to give ordinary people control of the network. All of its traffic flows directly from one cheap-to-run server to another.

The green dots on the bottom image could be labelled "just an everyday person", "a small group", "a non profit organisation", "a media that has a vision", "an enthousiast hobbyist", "not a billionnaire", "a cooperative", #GeorgeTakei, "an association", " "just regular folks like you", "just an other everyday person" and so on.
