If this holds true, it is a big win for interface over functionality and under-the-hood-technology.
Mastodon is based on a pretty good protocol (ActivityPub) and has many instances. But the usability is terrible. Bluesky on the other hand only has a single implementation and instance, and I find the protocol (The AT protocol) harder to grok. But the interface of the one instance is way better than any Mastodon instance I have seen.
