Following Donald Trump's recent U.S. election victory and Elon Musk's vocal support for his campaign on the social media platform X, many users are searching for alternative online spaces. Musk, who acquired Twitter in 2022 and rebranded it as X, has openly promoted Trump's agenda to his 200 million followers, prompting widespread dissatisfaction among a significant portion of the platform's user base. Bluesky, a decentralised social network resembling X, has quickly become a leading alternative, gaining traction with millions of users who are disenchanted with the direction Musk has taken X.
