Bluesky, a decentralized social media platform spearheaded by the former Twitter co-founder and CEO Jack Dorsey, is now confirming Dorsey’s resignation from the Bluesky board. The Bluesky account expressed gratitude towards Dorsey for his contributions as a founding investor and initiator of the project, which is currently in the process of recruiting new board members to replace Dorsey.
Reports of Dorsey’s resignation started circulating when users questioned his presence on the Bluesky board, to which Dorsey simply replied “no.” Subsequently, Dorsey unfollowed almost all accounts, leaving only three remaining followers: @stella_assange, @elonmusk, and @Snowden.
Bluesky was conceptualized in 2019 with the goal of creating a decentralized open-source social media standard. The project officially separated from Twitter in 2022 and has been steadily increasing its user base. The reasons behind Dorsey’s departure from the board remain undisclosed.
