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.

Downloaded it. Signed up. Replied to a post about rechargeable batteries. Account got restricted. Left.

Restricted to the whole site or just that user? The user tools are pretty powerful on their own.

Not sure what I got blocked from. Might poke around later and see. Guess I upset a bot by using a colon or something.
