BREAKING: Twitter is falling. We’ve lost 60,000 followers there. But we’ve nearly gained it all back here. Good with me.

Wow. On Nov. 5th, Threads had five times more daily active users in the US than Bluesky.

Now, Threads is only 1.5 times larger.

I can see why Meta is freaking out now

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky
