It should surprise no one that bluesky is able to leverage the socioeconomic status and wealth of its investors and founders to easily outpace the fediverse... which is a patchwork community construction maintained and developed on several orders of magnitude less capital..
so what?
The fediverse isn't of the same "type" as a for-profit corporate social network, it doesn't need to grow virally and produce ever growing profits to maintain legitimacy in the eyes of the people who maintain and provide foundation for the fediverse.
