Bluesky, the Twitter clone backed by Jack Dorsey, sees surge in new users.

Bluesky, a decentralized social media platform initially funded by Twitter and backed by Jack Dorsey, experienced its biggest single-day jump in new users, with a twofold increase compared to the day before. The app is still in beta testing and can only be downloaded with an invite from another user. Bluesky's rise in popularity may be due to Twitter's recent outages and changes to its verification system. Bluesky is aligned with Dorsey's vision of a social media service that is open and verifiable, where no one person or institution has complete ownership over the site.
