Following Elon Musk's rebranding of Twitter to X, several platforms emerged as alternatives, with Bluesky gaining traction among news influencers. A Pew Research Center report indicates that the proportion of news influencers on Bluesky increased significantly— from 21% to 43%— after the 2024 election. However, X remains the primary platform for most news influencers, with 82% maintaining active accounts there, underscoring X's continuing dominance despite the rise of competing platforms like Bluesky.
The share of news influencers with a Bluesky account roughly doubled after Election Day 2024, from 21 percent to 43 percent.
Despite Bluesky's growth, it appears most news influencers aren't letting go of their X accounts, with 82 percent still active on X.
