We knew I had to do it 😉
Yesterday, I posted a picture from a protest in #Hannover, and it went wildly viral here on #Mastodon. ✊🏼
But on #Bluesky it was even crazier! It's the first (big) post I've seen from Mastodon, that was more popular on another platform – and it wasn't even close.

Look 👇🏼

@mho Narrator: "In fact Mastodon was trailing Bluesky only slightly".

@mho
looks like 55% to 45% to me or were you referring to the Favs. Those have no meaning on Mastodon as they don't feed an algo and hence are less used.

@lostgen

I didn't mean to say with this post something like, this network is better than that one. I just wanted to show, that #BridgyFed really does allow you to reach an audience in both of them from one account only. Which is really cool don't you think?

@mho sure. it's great. But you were claiming it was more viral on Bluesky and "it wasn't even close".

It was actually close, despite the fact that you would expect Bluesky's algorithm to increase virality of popular toots.

I'm on no mission see one network better than the other. I just corrected your statement.

@lostgen

I said "more popular" and counted Boosts & Favs..
