Ex-Twitter CEO Dorsey, sets Bluesky Public Web Interface Launch
Bluesky, the decentralized platform spearheaded by Jack Dorsey, achieved a noteworthy milestone last week by surpassing the 2 million user mark. Far from resting on its laurels, the company is gearing up to introduce its public web interface, a move expected to enhance user accessibility to the platform.
Growing Beyond Expectations
Upon departing from Twitter, Jack Dorsey continued his commitment to developing a blockchain-based platform that would redefine decentralized experiences globally. Bluesky emerged on November 16, 2022, as an invite-only app. Despite its exclusive nature, it swiftly burgeoned into a massive community, boasting 2 million users within its first year.
Future Expansion Plans Unveiled
According to the latest blog post from the platform, Bluesky has set forth plans for expansion, notably through its federation initiative this year. The company is diligently working to liberate the user experience from dependency on a single platform, aligning with its commitment to providing users the freedom to choose to stay or leave the platform.
The “Billionaire-Proof” Vision
A key objective outlined by Bluesky’s team is to develop a “billionaire-proof” platform. This vision is aimed at granting users the autonomy to decide whether to remain on the platform or explore other options. Bluesky’s recent announcement sheds light on its future endeavors, with a focal point on the imminent launch of its public web interface scheduled for 2024.
Anticipated Launch in December
The upcoming phase of Bluesky’s development is slated to kick off in December, initiating the establishment of the much-anticipated public interface. This move aligns with the platform’s overarching goal to augment accessibility and decentralization, with a specific focus on its federation capabilities set to be unveiled early next year. The emphasis lies in offering functionalities that distinguish Bluesky from its counterparts.
