According to a Forbes report published Nov. 7, Bluesky’s daily active user count dropped sharply after President Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory, while his platform, Truth Social, saw modest gains during the same period.
While Bluesky's main competitor, Elon Musk's X, also saw a decline in daily active users, Forbes noted that Bluesky experienced "a much steeper decline than other major social networks over the same period."
"Bluesky’s number of average daily active users on mobile devices worldwide is down 39.8% year-over-year as of the end of October, according to data from Similarweb, a digital market intelligence company, a much steeper decline than other major social networks over the same period," the outlet reported.
