No, sorry yall.

 

Users get 1 invite code every two weeks, which is way too slow imo. Although I don't know if they can afford anything faster than that, the site is already having problems with loading right now due to all twitter expats  Someone posted this graph of active users:

 

Wait, so they only have 7k users?

Those are hourly posters, basically the activity doubled compared to the usual.

 

Idk how many users are on there, but it's not high in any case I don't think 

 

Edit: In fact, Bluesky currently has over 180,000 users, and the waitlist has ballooned to 1.9 million people.

I know. Jack isn’t perfect but it’s been a sh*tshow since he left… my only guess is he knew it was a sinking ship and jumped early

[YoungDreamer]

I am also looking for an invite

They closed registrations for now because the demand is too high.

I meant whats the point for us  cuz yeah they truly dont care abt the user base as long as they get their coin (altho in Elon's case he seems to be purposely wasting money so who even gets these billionaires) all I know is I dont want to join another Zuckerberg social media either

oh no

[Domination]

I’m surprised Jack wasn’t forced to sign a non-compete clause.

[Sergi91]

Who is Jack and can someone send me an invite?! 

[Starfish]

I need to get in stat . 

[Mastamaind]

I've signed up already, waiting for the launch.

[J Legend X]

Because honestly nothing can beat Twitter. It’s like when people tried to cancel Reddit last month. Yet here we are with Reddit still being more popular than the copies. 

[Dessy]

I finally made it to the site. Will probably park it there once more users join

[Monster Megamind]

Sorry I was away from ATRL. But I'm back. I'm going to post invite codes as and when they come. First come first serve to this who grab them from here.

Bluesky is still in early days beta version. But I'm glad we have a liberal /leftist haven for lgbt people there away from Twitter.
