Bluesky adds 1 million new users in 3 days amid X ban in Brazil
The decentralized microblogging platform has seen traffic and user numbers surge following the X expulsion from Brazil.
American decentralized microblogging social platform Bluesky has seen a surge in adoption and user growth in Brazil following the country’s ban on Elon Musk’s social media platform X.
In a post on X on Sept. 1, Bluesky Social, also known as Bsky — which looks and feels very similar to Musk’s rival platform — reported that it had accrued a million new users over the past three days.
On Aug. 30, a Brazilian Supreme Court justice ordered the suspension of X in the country after Elon Musk refused to name a legal representative for the firm.
