    I think “leave” is doing some heavy lifting, but I could see plenty of people creating accounts as the site reaches a large enough user base to attract the general public.

    I saw a video recently of somebody talking about how they were posting the same thing on Twitter and Bluesky, and despite having a fraction of the followers on Bluesky, the post there had like 6x the engagement compared to Twitter. As they put it, “The creatives have moved to Bluesky.”

      I don’t think “creatives” are more active than anyone else. For the number of users, the threadiverse has a higher ratio of activity I think and it’s generally more positive here than places like reddit. Maybe it’s a similar thing. The demographic that are likely to move, are just making similar content and that makes it look more active.

      I’ve heard of people having similar experiences on Mastodon as well. Seems like these smaller communities of early adopters tend to simply be more active and pleasant to interact with.
