Maybe the most interesting Bluesky vs. Threads data. Yes, Threads is almost definitely a lot bigger when you include app data (which SimilarWeb doesn't). But Bluesky is getting all the Twitter referrals, Threads is IG.
Bluesky is creating a second Twitter, Threads is a new IG offshoot instead

There's been some movement to Trump in the last week or so, but it's small, and well within the margin of error - which is effectively from +8 Harris to +4 Trump nationally. But thanks to an electoral college disadvantage, Harris probably needs at least a +2.5 lead. So the election is a coin toss.
