Following the 2024 U.S. Presidential election, a significant shift is happening in the social media landscape.
Many users, including Taylor Swift's fanbase, the Swifties, have begun leaving Elon Musk's X, formerly Twitter, for Bluesky, a rising social media platform.
In just a few days, Bluesky's user base surged from 14 million to 20 million, growing by a million new users each day.
This sudden influx follows dissatisfaction with Musk's social media platform, especially after the changes he introduced following the acquisition of Twitter, and now the 2024 election outcome.
Why Bluesky?
Bluesky offers a refreshing alternative to X and Meta Platforms, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:META) Threads.
Unlike Threads, which has minimized political content, Bluesky allows for more personalized, open conversations. Its open-source model, based on the AT Protocol, aims to empower users with greater control over their content and moderation.
With features like user-curated starter packs and decentralized governance, Bluesky has become a top choice for former X users looking for a platform that prioritizes user experience over corporate control.
Getting Started With Bluesky: The Starter Packs
If you're new to Bluesky, building your feed from scratch can be overwhelming. Thankfully, Bluesky's starter packs make this process easier.
Starter packs are user-curated lists of accounts, organized by interests, topics, or locations. They allow new users to quickly find and follow accounts that align with their interests without the tedious process of searching individually.
How To Find And Use Starter Packs
With over 86,000 starter packs available, you can browse them through the directory and search by keywords. Click here to access the directory.
You can either follow individual accounts or use the "follow all" button for faster results.

在2024年美國總統選舉之後，社交媒體格局正在發生重大變化。
許多用戶，包括泰勒·斯威夫特的粉絲群體「Swifties」，已經開始從埃隆·馬斯克的X（前身爲Twitter）轉移到Bluesky，一家新興的社交媒體平台。
僅僅幾天內，Bluesky 的用戶數從1400萬激增至2000萬，每天增加一百萬新用戶。
這種突然湧入的潮流是對馬斯克的社交媒體平台的不滿所致，尤其是在他收購Twitter並現在2024年選舉結果之後推行的改變。
爲什麼選擇Bluesky？
Bluesky爲人們提供了一種清新的選擇，相對於X和納斯達克上的Meta Platforms公司（原Twitter）的Threads。
與Threads不同的是，Bluesky減少了政治內容，允許更多個性化、開放的對話。其基於At Protocol的開源模式旨在賦予用戶對內容和管理更多的控制權。
憑藉用戶策劃的初始套件和去中心化治理等功能，Bluesky已成爲前X用戶首選的平台，他們尋找的是一個將用戶體驗置於公司控制之上的平台。
