Bluesky saw a massive surge in users in 2024. The social media platform has become one of the primary destinations for those leaving X (formerly Twitter). This year, 22.9 million people signed up for Bluesky. Over half of those new users (over 13 million) joined the platform in just the last month and a half.
Those figures come courtesy of Bluesky's 2024 in Review piece, which went up just before the end of the year. In that blog post, Bluesky highlighted other milestones, such as the platform transitioning from invite-only to being open to the public. "At launch, Bluesky had an early community of 3M people. One week later, over a million new users had signed up," said Bluesky.
