Network effect plays a role here. You can see certain groups, like economists, all moving over. They all follow each other and congregate in the same place. News orgs are reporting greater click through and conversion with fewer followers. I'm pretty sure Bluesky is here to stay now that a critical mass has been reached.

Bluesky/ATProto gives us the tools to sculpt the experience we want. No longer are we forced into a one size fits all algorithm or platform. It really seems like you are criticizing something you don't understand

This is not true, just a trope for those who want to hate on people for enjoying a different social media experience

You can say it's not true just like people on Mastodon can claim they're not riddled with furries, but that does not nothing to dispel the popular opinion. People have seen what they have seen.
