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.

Mastodon works more like twitter, several microblog posts that you only see if you search or check:

Latest posts of an instance;
The profile of the person posting;
Posts with certain hashtags;
Posts of people you chose to follow;

Meanwhile, lemmy works more like reddit, easier to find "specific content", with posts neatly separated by community/instance and easier to find/search/interact with in the future. It's less about individuals and more about communities

I think mastodon only interacts with lemmy as comments on existing posts, though there's probably a way to post to a community from a mastodon client/site
