I see! Got my wires crossed there. 

I think you hit the nail on the head, it's people trying to escape twitter not decentralisation enthusiasts yet.

It's ATProtocol not blockchain. It is supposed to be decentralized or at least more decentralized. 

I don't think decentralization enthusiast are using it. Just people who are trying to escape twitter because it is not too "right wing".

I wasted my day testing BlueSky

I was under the impression that bluesky was supposed to be Blockchain based...

Now, firstly I recognise that Blockchain ≠ Bitcoin. However, most interactions I've had with people who understand Blockchain are pretty pro bitcoin.  It seems odd to me that (if I'm right in bluesky being built on Blockchain) that bitcoin reception would be so poor. Or do people just use stuff without any real understanding of what it is/does.

Likely the latter as your experience suggests.
