@liaizon @mastodonusercount The operators of Bluesky claim they're having a spike
@mcc you think its fake? the president of brazil also posted bluesky as the first link to where they should be followed after the twitter ban
@liaizon No, I think it is real. However I phrased it like that because I don't know a way to independently confirm it.
They say the spike's quite big, tho.

thats the best one, hooks directly into the firehose, lots of different graphs. and the spike is definitely real, also easy to confirm by feeds such as https://bsky.app/profile/laurenshof.online/feed/aaabovvkumeis
usually top posts of the day on bsky have like 2k to 3k likes, now its like 20k to 40 and all brazilian memes lol
(make sure to have portugese turned on in language setting)
also confirmed by official account, 500k new signups in 2 days
