I was on Mastodon, but host or whatever you call it, didn't like what I said and got banned.

Feel like bluesky wouldn't have that kind of power and control by one person and be more open and popular.

I think it's the opposite. On Mastadon you can make a new account on a better server ie mods more aligned with you. On bluesky if you make a new account and say a similar bannable thing again you'll be banned again.

But people are sensitive, rather not jump server to server because that 😅 something on equal terms like bluesky seems good.
