Bluesky has gained a million new users in the last three days.
The platform posted about the milestone this afternoon, which it crossed after Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered a ban on Elon Musk’s X yesterday as part of an ongoing feud with the platform.
Apparently, enough are headed to Bluesky to drive its iOS app to the top of the Brazilian App Store, as TechCrunch writes.

What are blueskys current userbase numbers, mastodons current userbase numbers, and are they federated with each other?
no. there's a sort of a third party bridge, but it requires an account on one platform to follow a bot in order to show up on another, so if someone on Bluesky doesn't explicitly do it and you're using Mastodon, then you're not going to connect.
Two competing federation standards. The VHS and Betamax, or Blu Ray and HD-DVD, of 2024.

There isn’t a 1:1 comparison. But the closest comparison looks like Mastodon is on a bit of a decline at 800k MAU. Bluesky is roughly 400k daily likers.

That does not seem to know about Bluesky
It does, however, know about Mastodon.
Right, because FediDB tracks activitypub, which bluesky is not built upon.
...right but, as I said, Mastodon is. Which is what they asked about...
Oh, right. I guess I forgot all the individual questions. My bad.
Sure, but dari does not address 2/3rds of their answer. Just posting a link makes it seem like it does. You could've added that it only addresses Mastodon's user base from their answer and not Bluesky's nor wether they can communicate.
Dude, grow up.
that's for fediverse. not bluesky
They do not federate with each other AFAIK, Mastodon's user base is in another user's answer, Bluesky's IDK except apparently one million more than before
