Musk’s announcement earlier this week backfired as Bluesky hit a daily active user record afterwards.

On Android, the daily active users metric was up 20.6 per cent for Bluesky. Bluesky saw a total of 53,585 new signups in one day after Musk’s announcement — 5 per cent of the platform’s user base of around 1.13 million accounts, reports TechCrunch. In a live-streamed interaction with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the X owner floated the idea that the social network may no longer be a free site. “It’s the only way I can think of to combat vast armies of bots,” Musk said.
