Bluesky was created by a Twitter co-founder as a side project, but it's now seen an influx of new users following the U.S. election and inauguration.

As users continue to leave X (formerly Twitter) en masse, many in favor of the newer Bluesky platform, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has embarked on its own metamorphosis from one text-based social media service to the other.
