Bluesky has gained a million new users in the last three days.
The platform posted about the milestone this afternoon, which it crossed after Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered a ban on Elon Musk’s X yesterday as part of an ongoing feud with the platform.
Apparently, enough are headed to Bluesky to drive its iOS app to the top of the Brazilian App Store, as TechCrunch writes.
It’s fine if it’s only a handful of users. Even if they’re from Musk’s Xithole*. My issue would be if a lot of people saw Mastodon and said “it’s Twitter, with an elephant instead of bird!”, still behaving like Twitter users.
*desculpe-me pela piada besta; não resisti.
