Surge Fueled by Brazil and Elon Musk
Bluesky, has achieved significant growth, adding 8 million users in just the last ten months.
This surge follows its initial success in attracting 2 million users during its first year of operation, marking a staggering 400 percent increase in its user base.
The platform’s recent expansion has been notably boosted by its presence in Brazil and support from high-profile endorsements, including that of Elon Musk.
While the specifics of the user metrics—whether these numbers reflect daily or monthly active users or simply account holders—remain unclear, the growth trajectory is impressive.
Bluesky still faces a considerable gap compared to its larger competitors.
X, formerly Twitter, is estimated to have around 250 million daily users, while Threads boasts 175 million monthly users.
