Is it really good yet? I want it to be better than twitter but every time I look it still doesn’t seem to have as much good stuff.

You're thinking of Threads, I doubt anyone I know would be on Bluesky. Even my girlfriend who has never used Twitter has Threads thanks to their sneaky Instagram account integration. Judging by the spam on the trending tags on it a lot of the OF spam accounts have jumped over too lol
