New Social Media App Bluesky Gains Traction Among Influencers, Draws Comparisons to Twitter

  • Bluesky is a new decentralized social media app that allows users to create their own communities with customizable content moderation.
  • The app was created by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and has gained hundreds of thousands of users, many of whom dislike changes made to Twitter under Elon Musk's ownership.
  • Bluesky operates similarly to Twitter but currently lacks features like hashtags, direct messaging, and video capabilities.
  • The app has become popular among journalists, celebrities, and politicians but remains in beta testing and requires an invitation to join.
  • While some see Bluesky as a viable Twitter alternative, others are unsure if it can replicate Twitter's functionality and community-building.
