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.

the last time I tried to make a mastodon account I had to type a paragraph about why i want an account and then wait for an email approval and I don't know what the hell happened because I forgot to look for the email and by now I don't give a shit
When you try do sign up on the Mastodon app it defaults to and recommends mastodon.social, which does nothing of this sort. The average user will just keep this default and be fine.
im not sure what happened i think i was taking a shit
I didn't even know Mastodon has an exclusive club streak lol.
Just like Lemmy, some Mastodon instances have measures in place to try and prevent bots.
And it's also a way for topic focused servers to filter out signups as well. There are general purpose instances with open sign ups that don't do that.
Yeah, I got into Fosstodon right before they went invite only. And then I moved to a Sharkey instance.
