Bluesky bump from X exodus is slowing down, data shows


Social network and X competitor Bluesky's massive growth slowed in December in the U.S., after having surged from 9+ million in September to north of 20

The slowdown is based on an analysis of web traffic and mobile app daily active users by analytics firm Similarweb, which found that Bluesky grew less than 10% month-over-month in December 2024, compared with 189% growth in November. Daily active users of the Bluesky mobile app in the U.S. also grew 12% in December, compared with 284% growth in November, the firm says. The social network benefitted late last year from a user exodus from X, formerly Twitter, following the results of the U.S. presidential election in November.
