People are actually on BlueSky
There's now a decent measurement of #bluesky user numbers (https://bskycharts.edavis.dev/edavis.dev/bskycharts.edavis.dev/bsky\_users\_total.html) ...
They've got about 1.6M MAUs ...
& 0.8M Weekly unique users & 0.340M Daily.
That's not nothing!
Roughly double mastodon and 60% more than the whole fediverse (by MAUs, see fedidb.org).
Bluesky is quite "international" with large Japanese and Brazilian popltns, and there's real attrition happening IMO.
Still, let the protocol wars begin I suppose?

Bluesky is twitter. All the issues we have with X now are bound to happen with bluesky when it gets relevant.
The fediverse is the only viable alternative.
Bluesky is part of the fediverse. Isn't it?
They don't speak the same language as Lemmy and Mastodon, so can't really federate with anyone else at the moment
@lemann@lemmy.dbzer0.com Diaspora don't speak the same language either yet we consider it part of the fedi. It's one of the OGs that refused to adopt ActivityPub.
They built their own protocol which interacts with nothing else.
