Bluesky, which has been posed as an alternative to X, crossed two million users in November last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, Bluesky is thriving as an open source social network running on ‘atproto’, the decentralised protocol we have built,\u201d the statement added, thanking Dorsey for his help in funding and initiating the project.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Dorsey announced the same on X. While posting about grants for open protocols from his philanthropic Start Small initiative, a user asked him if he was still on the Bluesky board, to which he replied \u201cno.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bluesky has so far launched features like mobile push notifications, general user lists, email verification and advanced feed and thread preferences.<\/p>\n
