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.

Isn't BlueSky still on an invite system?

FYI- Signing up and following people on the Mastodon app now is literally just as easy as it is on BS. All the Federation stuff is hidden unless you want to look for it. It's very nice.

I've been on the waiting list for months now, at least there are Mastodon instances with open registration available.
