Link: Bluesky crosses the 15 million user mark

Bluesky has achieved a milestone by reaching 15 million users, fueled by a spike in sign-ups after the US presidential election.

This growth includes a significant addition of about a million new users in just the past week, as reported by a stat-tracking site using the Bluesky API.

Bluesky's high user engagement has catapulted it to the top of the iOS app store, surpassing other apps like Threads, ChatGPT, and the Google app.

Despite Meta's Threads boasting 275 million monthly users, Bluesky offers a unique user experience with its decentralized protocol and customizable feed options.

The platform has recently added new features such as video posting, pinned posts, custom fonts, and measures aimed at reducing toxicity, enhancing user interaction.

Bluesky’s COO, Rose Wang, highlighted that the majority of the recent influx of users is predominantly from the US. #
