It’s been three weeks since I wrote about my move from 𝕏 to Bluesky and my reasons for doing it.

I wasn’t the only one. There has been a mass exodus from Elon Musk’s social media platform for multiple reasons. You can read about some of them here:

At the time I wrote that article, Bluesky was growing by a million users a day. It currently has over 24 million, increasing by one user every second.
