Traffic on Bluesky, an X competitor, is up 500% since the election. How will they handle the surge? Unlike other social media sites, Bluesky allows users to create their own algorithm. The site does not have ads, nor harvest data for artificial intelligence training. But it is still very small and has an unproven business record.

#Bluesky traffic up by 500%, absolutely crushing Threads and X (twitter).

Millions are choosing the good place.
