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

Bluesky is to Mastodon & ActivityPub, what Matrix is to XMPP/IRC... a completely over-engineered system, ignoring all well established international standards and run by a for-profit entity with venture capital funding.

Matrix is literally the best decentralized real time chat we have. I don't think you understand how the Matrix protocol at works, and I assume you are blindly repeating what you read online that XMPP must be better because it supposedly has less lines of code, though I'm sure you didn't check that either.

I hate to inform you that I know the insides of both pretty well and run both myself on my server and have evaluated the differences extensively 🤷‍♂️

That's awesome, and I still know that you don't know what you're talking about. But damn you made me a soyjack, that definitely tells me you've actually looked into the technical differences.
