Provocative
- Bluesky, a decentralized social platform, gained 500,000 new users in a single day.

In the United States, Bluesky has reported a surge of half a million new users within a single day, coinciding with significant changes on the X platform. X, formerly Twitter, is undergoing controversial updates, including the modification of its blocking feature. Users were notified that their posts would still be visible to those they previously blocked, increasing potential harassment and altering personal safety dynamics on the platform. This change has been criticized, particularly as blocking is a protective tool for many users.
