"The White House joined Bluesky on Friday evening, and less than 48 hours later, it has been blocked by more than 92,000 users, according to VQV, an app that tracks Bluesky stats. Vance has racked up 166,000 blocks since joining the platform in June. That means at this rate, the White House will leapfrog the vice president for the infamous, or venerable, depending on who you ask, position of being the most-blocked account on Bluesky."
"The platform has become a go-to social media safe space for liberals who did not want to use X, the platform owned by Elon Musk, following the 2024 election. Bluesky was dubbed Blue Heaven by some members of The Resistance to Donald Trump, and many journalists and media pundits migrated over to the app and ditched X. Former MSNBC host Joy Reid and ex-CNN star Don Lemon were two of the more prominent media figures who joined Blue Sky after the election."
President Donald Trump's White House account became the second-most-blocked account on Bluesky within days of joining the platform. The only account with more blocks belonged to Vice President JD Vance. The White House joined Bluesky on Friday evening and was blocked by more than 92,000 users in less than 48 hours, according to VQV. Vance has accumulated 166,000 blocks since joining in June, and the White House may soon surpass him. Bluesky attracted many liberals and journalists who left X after the 2024 election. The White House debut post included a 52-second video of President Trump's greatest hits since returning in January. Most-followed accounts include Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Mark Cuban, and Mark Hamill.
