TL;DR

Bluesky, a decentralized social network, has added over 700,000 new users in a week, reaching a total of 14.5 million users, with most new users from the US. The app is now the second most popular free social networking app in the US App Store, behind Meta's Threads. Bluesky's growth is partly attributed to dissatisfaction with other platforms like X and Threads, and its new features such as pinned posts and custom feeds. The platform's user base surged after X announced changes to its blocking feature, prompting users to seek alternatives.
