   When Elon bought Twitter, we saw an immense migration from that platform to here.

   When Trump got elected, I've seen nothing but increases to BlueSky.

   The Fediverse really missed a window.

     @alex Yup! Haven't seen any account introductions posts here like we are on Bluesky.

     @alex I don't think either of those things are surprising.

     The kinds of people who would have been immediately put out by the ownership change are the same kind of people who would prefer fedi.

     The kinds of people with reasons to stick around until the receipts fully came in and the political costs became too high are going to be more at home on bsky.

     @tess @alex Also, a bunch of the former were effectively driven off the fedi (primarily masto) and went to bsky, both serving as a warning for the latter group and creating a pull factor there for them.
