News & Reviews:   Bluesky

Bluesky today shared several developments on its platform, including stating that its platform now has 40 million registered users. The number of active users was not disclosed, but it shows the healthy development of the platform.

After four years of operation, Bluesky finally introduced an account verification feature with a special blue badge. Two types of badges are given, namely Trusted Verifier and Verified Account. Trusted Verifier is given to trusted organisational accounts that have previously added domain links using the account. These accounts are given a blue logo with a white badge in a toothed circle. So, what should you know about it?

If you enjoy scrolling through images on Instagram but don't care for the app's other features, here's an alternative you can consider. Social media company Bluesky has unveiled its own version of Instagram, and it's as clean as they come.

In addition to Threads sharing its achievements by announcing around 32 million users actively using the platform every month, BlueSky is now also celebrating its own achievements. So, what should you know about it?

Bluesky will start offering subscription plans starting at the end of this year according to the company's COO Rose Wang in an interview with Bloomberg. Through subscription, users can support this alternative platform to X and at the same time receive advantages such as longer video uploads and icon customisation

In just one week, the number of Bluesky users increased by 33.3% and now it has 20 million users. Previously, the app recorded 15 million users just a week ago. The increase in the number of users is closely related to the migration of X users who left Elon Musk's platform which was seen as problematic.
