Jack Dorsey, founder and CEO of Twitter when the little blue bird was still alive and well, has returned to the fray in the fight for leadership of social messaging networks. This week Bluesky has withdrawn the invitation system with which new users were currently gradually accessing, allowing access to everyone. In fact, the change has caused Bluesky to be down for a couple of hours. This intention was shared by Bluesky’s executive director, Jay Graber, in an interview with ‘The Verge’, in which he indicated that this would only be the first of a few changes that he would roll out little by little. For what will come later, they must first strengthen the infrastructure and the moderation system to finish the beta phase of the social network. For now, at least it is not a closed beta, which is already a big step after a year since its launch. So far, Twitter’s successor has 1.6 million active users per month and 25,000 personalized ‘feeds’, although since its launch a year ago it has registered 3 million logins and “many more downloads”, which are expected that they become regular users, according to Graber.

They don’t want “the network to change overnight,” but this will add a great layer of customization and make the user experience unique for each user. Graber has also shared that they have plans to monetize the platform, by charging users to access additional features or to customize specific aspects of the servers. In any case, it seems that the success of Threads in the US (because in Europe it has not finished working yet), has caused the creators to advance its launch and join the competition to unseat X.
