i actually think it's pretty impressive that the daily user signups on this platform have only continued to grow since the election you expect a plateau at some point, but Bluesky went from 100,000 signups a day to 1 million in a day does it continue? OoOoO i guess we'll find out - ThreadSky

twitter is more unusable by the day… i was scrolling past blue checks on autopilot but then sometimes the thread would just prematurely end in a field of blue checks

freeyourmind42.bsky.social•114 days ago

Can you shout out bluesky on MR? Lots of us are deleting twitter and hoping progressive commentators post here

wandaduck.bsky.social•115 days ago

Been waiting for the cool kids to get here…

katiekatz.bsky.social•115 days ago

Sad fact: I had planned to use that same Barbie clip for if Kamala won.

asp65.bsky.social•115 days ago

Impressive

bleachedthorns.bsky.social•115 days ago

Will Emma be coming back to bluesky? Hard to find good political commentators on here

chuckolalala.bsky.social•115 days ago

I hope so. Threads is terrible.

drhello.bsky.social•112 days ago

They're so upset. They're missing us so much https://bsky.app/profile/cwebbonline.bsky.social/post/3lb54tezhfk2f 😂

Some of them are Trumper’s, unfortunately

perkster.bsky.social•115 days ago

Agreed Elon’s X is going down.

kevinrohr.bsky.social•115 days ago

why is it happening?

toneace.bsky.social•115 days ago

I mean I'm all for it but no one is talking about how the app was invite only for the longest time but now the door is wide open and of course the numbers are going to grow. No one expected this but ya have to wonder where this app would be at if the door was open from the start

feels like bluesky hit a tipping point—the swarm of sports media over here has had a big impact, i expect, and has gotten sports teams over as well.

mattbinder.bsky.social•115 days ago

Sports Twitter has been the one thing basically keeping X in the mainstream. if they lose even some of that...

dgauss.bsky.social•115 days ago

A lot of MLS and MLB has moved over from what I follow

3adawi.bsky.social•113 days ago

Moved or just have presence here now?

dgauss.bsky.social•112 days ago

Not sure, probably a mixed bag

cgfrangos.bsky.social•115 days ago

No one wants the stench Ellen Mollosk.

markyhedgehog.bsky.social•115 days ago

More people comes with more problems though. I just hope the IT team can deal with them better than on the other app.

martye.bsky.social•115 days ago

As long as the dumbfucks don’t come and ruin it like they did the old bird site, and…ya know - seemingly everything else.

snappytom86.bsky.social•115 days ago

I keep picking up random new followers. Not bad for not really posting on here!

oliviabgraves.bsky.social•115 days ago

In a time of awful news, shitty people, racists running the other platform,
I think most people just want a place to getaway from it all and have the simple joy of what the old Twitter was. Hopefully it can stay this way, and keep growing.

pwrussell.bsky.social•115 days ago

Heading for another million today by the look of it.

firkytoodle.bsky.social•115 days ago

Brace yourselves - a lot of those are going to be right wingers AND right wing bots AND right wing sock puppets larping as left...

This time, when you start hearing from "left" accounts spouting contrarian and right wing views, perhaps you'll be more aware and simply dismiss them...

thetungstenwire.com•114 days ago

I think Bluesky seems better than Threads as an alternative to Twitter.

I didn't realize how much of a cesspool Twitter had become. This feels like old Twitter.

henrick.thebull.app•115 days ago

Well we might see even more now.

crucialwax.com•115 days ago

It’s going to break. I don’t think they’ll be able to keep up.

rudebina.bsky.social•115 days ago

lanainmn.bsky.social•115 days ago

F*** Elon!

starlarbu.bsky.social•115 days ago

certainly some of the migration is out of spite but frankly Musk has largely destroyed twitter's functionality. people want to click into posts and see funny+interesting replies that people like, not the walls of paid bots and ultra homogenous insane right wing opinion that are now prioritized

duzek.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yes, it is just about unusable now.

spacetimelattice.bsky.social•115 days ago

we've hit the posters' equivalent of 1.21 gigawatts

hughdingus.bsky.social•115 days ago

The AI terms are gunna hurt X but need sports and Sam Sedar to keep the push going
