The website vs app split for Bluesky vs Threads captures the difference in user base and usage patterns beautifully.

Bluesky = knowledge sector workers who have it open all day in a tab next to their emails. β€œWait what was I doing again?”

Threads = normies watching recipe videos on the commute.
