Is it just the momentum and word of mouth, or are there improved features as well?

Easier sign up. On BlueSky you can just sign up for an account and go. You don't have to worry about picking an instance or anything like on Mastodon, which can be a bit off-putting for someone not familiar with federation.

It’s ridiculous how much Mastodon advocates downplay this.

I strongly prefer Mastodon over the alternatives, but the onboarding experience is BAD for the average user.

For a while now, the app has been really easy to sign up on, and now the website is the same.
