I’m on both and I find Mastodon to be a better experience. BlueSky just feels like Twitter Lite. I’ve seen people begging for followers and getting the same spam follows from nonsense gimmick accounts.

On both, but I haven’t bothered to touch mastodon in a while.
I can appreciate some of the ideas that draw people into Mastoson but for me it’s just super boring though, everyone that I followed on Twitter who moved over is still great to see content from, but the overall vibe of both the instance I’m on and the global federated feed is either just the same stuff for a whole day and a half or infinite small un-curated posts. It doesn’t have that twitter “feel” of stuff I want to see and stuff I might want to see.
Bluesky on the other hand has a lot of user-generated “feeds” that lets me try out some different options, many of which offer exactly what I miss about Twitter. Still no magic algorithms as smart as Twitter’s was / is, but the user-generated stuff does a good job most of the time in showing me content from accounts I follow, accounts that they interact with frequently, and content that is similar to what I follow and interact with. It’s a lot more satisfying and useful to scroll down for a bit than on Mastodon.
The create your own algorithm of BlueSky is rather novel. I like it too.
