MODERATORS
What are blueskys current userbase numbers, mastodons current userbase numbers, and are they federated with each other?
no. there's a sort of a third party bridge, but it requires an account on one platform to follow a bot in order to show up on another, so if someone on Bluesky doesn't explicitly do it and you're using Mastodon, then you're not going to connect.
Two competing federation standards. The VHS and Betamax, or Blu Ray and HD-DVD, of 2024.

There isn’t a 1:1 comparison. But the closest comparison looks like Mastodon is on a bit of a decline at 800k MAU. Bluesky is roughly 400k daily likers.
They do not federate with each other AFAIK, Mastodon's user base is in another user's answer, Bluesky's IDK except apparently one million more than before
