This is the first time I'm seeing a way to host a full Bluesky network, I think. It seems like a big step towards full federation beyond appviews and personal data servers.

I think it’s just discoverability of content, and probably some UX. Mastodon isn’t really a great show of what ActivityPub can do.

I'm kind of surprised I don't see Calckey or similar mentioned more. Personally I think it has solved a lot of Mastodon's problems, but it seems niche even within the niche that is the fediverse.

Unfortunately I feel like people have stopped looking for a Twitter alternative already

It should surprise no one that bluesky is able to leverage the socioeconomic status and wealth of its investors and founders to easily outpace the fediverse... which is a patchwork community construction maintained and developed on several orders of magnitude less capital..

so what?

The fediverse isn't of the same "type" as a for-profit corporate social network, it doesn't need to grow virally and produce ever growing profits to maintain legitimacy in the eyes of the people who maintain and provide foundation for the fediverse.
