Bluesky's total number of users has finally exceeded 9 million, and video posting function will be released soon

It has become clear that the total number of Bluesky users has exceeded 9 million. The number of users has increased rapidly following the suspension of X (formerly Twitter) services in Brazil, and the number of users has increased by more than 3 million in the past few days.

On August 31, 2024, the Brazilian Supreme Court ordered X to suspend its services. This resulted in a surge in the number of new Bluesky users, with the number of users increasing by 2 million in just one week up to September 3, 2023.

According to a post made by the Bluesky management team on September 7, 2024, the number of new users of Bluesky has reached 3 million, and the total number of users has exceeded 9 million. The post was made in English, Japanese and Portuguese, the official language of Brazil.

Additionally, it was announced that the video upload feature, which has been in the works for some time, will be implemented soon. The Bluesky development team is showing off how busy they are.

At the time of writing, there was a URL called ' video.bsky.app ' that looked like the official page for the video posting function, but when I accessed it, all I got was the playback page for the video in question .
