I don't have the problem of No Body on Blusky since some of my favorite twitter people quit the service formerly known as Twitter and hang out on Blusky instead. So just from my POV there are people to talk to there. That's true of Twitter for the moment as well but the attrition is real and visible. I mostly just view specific users to see whether there's any updates.

I only use Blusky on my phone so I can't comment on the desktop UX but to me Twitter is weirdly laggy making, e.g., long threads impossible to read without constant reloading and losing your place.

Really my problems with Twitter are the banal ones, the ghost towning, degradation of latency and UX and threats of further downgrades. The political aspects of the enshittefication haven't been enough to stop being a habitual user. I remember taking a month off because I was too compulsive at Twitter, but I am no longer under any threat of that.
