Bluesky has gained a million new users in the last three days.

The platform posted about the milestone this afternoon, which it crossed after Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered a ban on Elon Musk’s X yesterday as part of an ongoing feud with the platform.

Apparently, enough are headed to Bluesky to drive its iOS app to the top of the Brazilian App Store, as TechCrunch writes.

          Right, because FediDB tracks activitypub, which bluesky is not built upon.

                  How did you take away “they were asking about Mastodon” when the question mentioned bluesky first? OP was asking for a comparison of the two, which your link does not provide, putting your answer somewhere between unhelpful and irrelevant.

                  You keep arguing with people pointing this out as if your response was a complete answer… It seems like you cherry picked the middle of their question and ignored the rest. The more-generous interpretation of this scenario is that your reading comprehension sucks. That’s my point.

                  And if you’re really feeling so insulted by my pointing that out,

                  Dude, grow up.

                  edit: and it would have taken such a small additional effort to maybe clarify that you were only addressing part of the question instead of dropping a link with no explanation. You could’ve prevented a lot of confusion by being a little less lazy in your original reply.

          Sure, but dari does not address 2/3rds of their answer. Just posting a link makes it seem like it does. You could’ve added that it only addresses Mastodon’s user base from their answer and not Bluesky’s nor wether they can communicate.
