In this clip from the Club Ambition Podcast, host SOUND and the crew discussed the rise of Bluesky, a new social media platform gaining traction as more users, including celebrities like Gabrielle Union and Don Lemon, announce their departure from Twitter (now X). The conversation touches on Elon Musk’s influence on the platform, especially during the election period, and how the app’s shift towards more conservative views is affecting its user base. They also reflect on the timing of these celebrity departures and express skepticism about the long-term success of Blue Sky, noting that the app looks similar to old Twitter but with a new logo.
The hosts share mixed opinions on Elon Musk’s impact on Twitter, with some mentioning his shift towards more political content. They discuss the personal reasons behind celebrities’ departures, calling the public announcements “extra” and questioning the benefit of such statements. Ultimately, the conversation concludes with a debate over whether Bluesky will truly replace Twitter and whether the platform can maintain its momentum.
The hosts also joke about the evolving use of Twitter, mentioning how they personally use it more for news and sales notifications, rather than engaging with the social side of the app.
The episode offers casual, humorous insights on the ongoing changes in social media and the influence of celebrities and Elon Musk on these shifts.
