I tried moving to Mastadon first a few years ago and it was a pretty shit experience, Bluesky however has stuck in my app rotation pretty well.

General advice regarding open source: even if you tried something out years ago and didn't like it, it may be well worth giving it another shot. Open source projects often need some time to mature and take their time to improve, but only get better over time.

Unfortunately until they implement a For you algorithm across all instances and abandoned their archaic hashtag following system I will not be re-attempting

Which is incidentally the opposite of proprietary products, where if you give it another go in a few years it either doesn't exist or is enshittified.

Because Bluesky is centralised. You went from one serial killer's house to another. You don't know which serial killer owns your new house, but you're hoping they'll be nicer than the previous one. But at least their house is nearly as nice as the old serial killer's house.

Dunno why you're being down voted so hard. Didn't Bluesky literally cede to Turkish demands of censorship or some shit?
