Bluesky has reached 20 million users, marking a significant increase from 15 million just days ago. The app has nearly tripled its user base in three months, adding a million users daily recently, similar to Threads' growth. Despite being smaller than competitors like Threads and X, Bluesky has become the top app on Apple’s App Store for six days and the leading non-gaming app on Google Play for four days. The recent surge in users may be linked to dissatisfaction among X users, particularly after the presidential election. Bluesky has also committed to not using user content for AI training, setting it apart from its rivals.
