Bluesky Is Becoming 'Blue Heaven' for 'The Resistance' to Trump and Musk

Bluesky is the digital place to be for anyone who considers themselves a card-carrying member of "The Resistance" to Donald Trump and/or an Elon Musk hater. Spend five minutes on the app, and that is clear.
In a matter of weeks, the social platform has enjoyed rapid growth as left-leaning X users — including prominent media pundits and Hollywood celebrities — flee Musk's app. The reason? Trump, who Musk publicly backed and spent more than $100 million to help get back into the White House, won the election."
Now, to boycott the Musk-Trump alliance, disenchanted X users are turning to Bluesky as their new "Blue Heaven," as "Sons of Anarchy" actor Chad Lindberg put it.
For those who haven't explored Blue Heaven yet, here's a taste of what's on the app:
"Star Wars" star Mark Hammill joined the app on Sunday. He announced his arrival by sharing a photoshopped newspaper dubbed "The Resistance" (Issue #1) with his picture included. The "paper" includes a write-up that says Hamill is "known for his sharp wit and unwavering support for progressive causes."
Hamill's X account, where he was frequently critical of Trump and shared his support for Kamala Harris, hasn't been active since the day after Election Day. His Bluesky account has nearly 500,000 followers by Tuesday morning."
