"Bluesky now platform of choice for science community" https://werd.io/bluesky-now-platform-of-choice-for-science-community/(Mastodon is mentioned, but not the fediverse).IMHO, the main reason why "mainstream" people such as the scientists chose Bluesky is marketing: people are so conditioned to use one central service that it is no longer possible to think of an alternative. Bluesky is seen as Twitter without Musk, and it's enough for many.

@bortzmeyer many people helped the marketing by calling bluesky "twitter 2"And tbh I am happy that the fediverse stays weird and is not too crowded.

@bortzmeyer As someone who tried hard to convince fellow scientists to come to Mastodon during the Twitter debacle, I 100% agree with this theory. 99% of the post-rationalization weight was carried by stereotypes implanted by marketing.
