It&#x27;s interesting to see this migration starting to take hold.For myself, I initially chose to be most active on Threads, but lately it&#x27;s Bluesky that I&#x27;ve been gravitating towards.Granted, I&#x27;m nowhere near as active on social media as I was a decade ago. However, Bluesky does feel like &quot;old Twitter,&quot; per the article.

The furry community got an early start, as it often does with these things, and has a significant presence.

from my observation, techies, gaming, black twitter, journalists, artists, OF models, and of course left-wing people

I didn&#x27;t know Bluesky was popular. Aside from scientific community, what other &quot;segments&quot; actively use it?

The year after that poll would be around July 2024. We are in mid November now. Most of the growth BlueSky has seen is from recent months.

The title is misleading:&gt; &quot;The scientific community finds a new home on Bluesky&quot;Except from body:&gt; In July 2023, Adam Kucharski asked his Twitter followers: what platform do you think you will be spending the most time on a year from now?&gt; ...&gt; although academics mostly stuck with X in the year after the poll...

Like 'old Twitter': The scientific community finds a new home on Bluesky
