Fledgling social media upstart Bluesky has enjoyed a surge in new users over the past week, more than doubling its user base to over 15 million as leftists flee from X/Twitter. However, the rapid growth has also brought significant moderation challenges for the young company. The overwhelmingly leftist userbase has been flooded the company with flagged posts, requests for censorship, and even child pornography.
The New York Times reports that in the midst of significant changes in the social media landscape, Bluesky, a relatively new social network, has experienced an unprecedented surge in growth. Founded by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, Bluesky was initially introduced as an invitation-only prototype with the intention of closely managing its growth. However, the past week has seen the platform’s user base more than double, surpassing 15 million users as people seek alternatives to established networks such as X, Facebook, and Threads.
The rapid growth of Bluesky has propelled the app to the top of both Apple’s and Google’s app stores, where it currently holds the position of the most downloaded free app. This sudden influx of users has forced the company, which consists of only 20 full-time employees, to adapt and scale up its operations practically overnight.

On X/Twitter, users are noting that the new platform is quick to censor anyone engaged in wrongthink, including one user allegedly banned on the same day he signed up, echoing the previous Twitter moderation rules before Elon Musk bought the company.

In the dictionary next to phrase asshole.
They’re lefties Jim.
At least they are all in one place.................
Here’s an interesting thought. Twitter had THOUSANDS of employees pre-Musk. He came in and slashed the work force, some say by 90%. People were hand-wringing that there was no way he could run the company with such a small workforce.
Yet here’s an “X” startup competitor with only TWENTY employees! So Musk was right.
Maybe all the naysayers will acknowledge that.
Bluesky is nothing more than a bunch of ingrown, inbred leftists. I give it six months before it completely degenerates into a sodded heap.
Let them swim in there own cesspool full of turds.

Might be fun to join and get estabished as a SuperKaren or SuperChad, gumming up the works with constant complaints to the manager...
Ho Chi Jack is back.
