AdvertisementBluesky's user base surged to 21 million, prompting the company to race to get more servers. Its growth follows users leaving X, with over 280,000 closing their accounts on Election Day.

AdvertisementUsers and brands, like former CNN anchor Don Lemon and The Guardian, have been leaving X.Gordon MacMillan, ex-head of content strategy at Twitter, says Bluesky is most like the old Twitter. This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Gordon MacMillan, who was previously the head of content strategy at Twitter. Bluesky feels familiar to Twitter usersBluesky, I think, is the most like the old Twitter and feels more familiar than Threads, which doesn't have Twitter-style lists and can be hard to organize content on. They have tweaked Threads and made improvements, but Bluesky feels more familiar, even beyond the use of the color blue. It feels like BlueSky and Threads have a much better environment.

Meta last week began blocking advertisers from creating or running new ads about US social issues, elections or politics across its platforms, including Facebook and Instagram. But experts say that previous moves by social media companies — such as cutting their own internal safety teams — could undercut their current efforts. Former President Donald Trump and many of his supporters have already made repeated false claims that Democrats are cheating in the election. But since then, those companies have made cuts to those teams and walked back policies designed to restrict false claims about politics and elections. Last year, they said they would no longer remove false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.

Search interest for "Travel Tuesday" rose more than 500% from 2021 to 2023, according to a report published by McKinsey & Company on Thursday. Searches are highest among American and Canadian consumers, but interest is also rising in Australia, the United Kingdom, Netherlands and Spain, according to McKinsey. "European travel companies can anticipate the possibility that Travel Tuesday will become a growing phenomenon in their region," McKinsey's report notes. Searches for "Cyber Monday" are far greater than "Travel Tuesday," but interest in the former is declining, it showed. "But unlike some of the impulse purchases consumers make on Black Friday, travel bookings can require more planning."

Online content creators, they say, often fail to ensure the same basic standards for treating cast and crew that more traditional entertainment sets do. However, as digital productions grow, those who work with or under creators said some could benefit from the structure seen on traditional Hollywood sets. Unlike Hollywood sets, most digital productions do not necessarily rely on union workers. Some believe the digital entertainment space — which includes a wide range of productions, including reality and scripted content — would benefit from union oversight. “Because new [digital] media has got about 15 years, the unions have 100.
