Because its probably the best twitter alternative
Not even close to Mastodon
Bluesky is more usable than Mastodon purely because it doesn't use a decentralized model. Sure it defeats the purpose, but on the plus side it removes some serious inconveniences that the true fediverse comes with, for example i've never been on Bluesky and found myself unable to upvote someone because i've accidentally left my instance.

Yeah but who owns the servers currently running it? If it's decentralized but the same entity owns all the servers, then it's not decentralized. Seems obvious
