Bluesky buzz: Why the social media platform is being called the next Twitter
Why some major politicians and celebrities are turning away from Elon Musk-owned Twitter and toward Bluesky, a social platform started by Jack Dorsey.
Bluesky is the internet's buzziest social media platform — but you need an invite to get a look at it.
The decentralized Twitter clone is in beta, and invites are scarce. Twitter is full of people asking others for Bluesky access codes to avoid being put on a waitlist.
It's become the latest platform to be described as a potential Twitter replacement for some following Elon Musk’s takeover of the social media app.
While Bluesky's beta was made public in February, buzz surrounding the platform grew in April as more Twitter users began posting about flocking there. As of Friday, politicians such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and celebrities such as Chrissy Teigen had joined the platform.
Here's what to know about the platform some are describing as the next Twitter.
