BlueSky Surges to Top 5 App Downloads as 500,000 Users Leave X Over Block Feature Changes
Oct 18, 2024, 08:27 AM
BlueSky, the social media platform developed by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, experienced a significant surge in user growth following recent controversial changes implemented by Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter). Musk's decision to destroy the block feature and changes to image use and AI data training policies prompted a mass exodus of users seeking alternatives. BlueSky reportedly gained half a million new users in one day, propelling it into the top five app downloads in the U.S. App Store. The influx was so substantial that it caused temporary technical issues, with the platform being knocked offline due to increased traffic. Media outlets such as The Independent, Mashable, TechRadar, The Verge, and TechCrunch have reported on the shift, highlighting the growing discontent among X users and the significant migration to BlueSky.
