  • Why was it a hard decision for you?

    Not the person you replied to, but when a few friends of mine tried to migrate off Twitter, mastodon.social had closed sign-ups. So with the “official” instance unavailable, the issue was that there was a choice at all.

    While there’s only one “Twitter” or (presently) only one “BlueSky” to join, on Mastodon you suddenly have to decide which instance is the right one to make your account on. Which instance is most likely to stick around for the next couple years? Which instance is most aligned with your interests? Does the instance happen to (de)federate in any way that is a deal-breaker for you? Is the instance moderated well? You wouldn’t have to think about those if you signed up to BlueSky.

    It’s an issue similar to what Linux has with distributions.
