Overview

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

Bluesky has rapidly gained 20 million users, primarily composed of political commentators and journalists. The platform, while lively, is criticized for lacking diversity in its user base, as it misses regular users who contribute lighter and varied content akin to pre-Musk Twitter. Users like AOC celebrate the absence of hate but emphasize the need for a broader mix of voices beyond political discourse.
