Bluesky, the decentralized short-form posting platform, surpassed 15 million users following a recent surge linked to the US presidential election, as per Bluesky developer Jaz’s tracking. The app gained over a million new users in a week, with Bluesky COO Rose Wang noting that most new signups are from the US.
Bluesky currently tops the iOS app store, followed by Threads and ChatGPT. Unlike Threads, Bluesky lets users create custom algorithmic feeds. Recent features include video posting, pinned posts, and anti-toxicity tools for user control.
