What is BlueSky? The app trying to replace Twitter created by former CEO Jack Dorsey

A brand new exclusive social media platform has been launched, which not only looks almost identical to Twitter, but is also trying to replace it. Known as BlueSky, the platform has been created by Twitter's former CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey.

It was first put on Apple Store in February before being placed on Google Play Store in April, and is free to download. However, the social network is still in its private beta stage, and the only way to access the app for now is via invite before it is made publicly available.

To get an invite, users just need to visit the BlueSky website and provide their email address. Already millions of people have expressed interest in signing up to it.
