As far as I can tell, the advantages of Mastodon over Bluesky are:

Well implemented federation

No "starter kits" which are just positive-feedback loops for popular accounts
No "algorithm" which promotes popularity or engagement over quality or relevance

Haha, thanks! I know it's quite important for a good bunch of people here (on a federated site), but I guess I'll stick with Bluesky then. Thanks for the insights! : )

It's important because, along with the ability to migrate accounts, it prevents/deters enshittification. In betting Bluesky will hit that wall in the next few years (I'm guessing they'll never properly implement federation).
