Mastodon is one of the most-loved open-source social media platforms. But, what's different with Bluesky?
Although they do similar things, and both can federate, there are some differences too. It's important to also remember that the Mastodon social network is one of many social networks that all use the ActivityPub protocol, and those networks collectively are referred to as the Fediverse. Mastodon may be the biggest social network in the Fediverse, but the others offer other options such as long text format posts, nomadic identities, photo albums, etc.
