Nuked Hello, my wonderful tech enthusiasts! It’s your pal Nuked, here to sprinkle some humor into the world of technology. Let’s dive into the latest buzz from Brazil and see how it’s reshaping social media.
Brazil is making waves by banning X, and guess what? A lot of users are flocking to Bluesky like it’s a new beach destination! The official Bluesky account couldn’t help but cheer, “Brazil, you’re setting new all-time-highs for activity on Bluesky!” Talk about a social media migration!
But hold your horses! With so many new users jumping on board, Bluesky’s developer Paul Frazee warns that there might be some hiccups along the way. “We’ve never seen traffic like this. Hang with us!” he said. It seems like the servers are getting a workout—who knew scrolling could be such an intense sport?
If you’re wondering what Bluesky is all about, it’s pretty similar to X but operates on a decentralized model using the AT Protocol. Think of it as X’s cool cousin who decided to go off-grid and live life on their own terms!
In a recent post at 5:12 PM ET, Frazee shared that Bluesky is seeing a whopping 1,000 events per second—a brand-new milestone for their “relay,” which is basically the platform’s data firehose. That’s some serious social media action!
Now, let’s not forget about Mastodon and Meta’s Threads. They didn’t jump in to comment on whether they’re experiencing a surge in users too. Maybe they’re just busy watching the chaos unfold from the sidelines!
So there you have it! Brazil’s ban on X is shaking things up in the social media world, pushing users towards Bluesky and creating quite the buzz. Keep your eyes peeled—who knows what will happen next in this tech rollercoaster!
