Can someone explain to me how Bluesky is different than Mastodon and if it’s not different why they bothered creating it when Mastodon exists? I truly don’t get it.

It’s likely that when Bluesky rolls out in full, advertisers will have the ability to place ads in networks or user interest groups similar to Reddit’s framework. This user self-selection will be extremely useful to businesses running targeted campaigns.

Give Gargron time he'll add ads and buddy up with Meta while signing mystery NDAs

He can add ads if he wants, and you can simply move to another ad-free instance.
