#Twitter Migration 1.0: Japan (2017?). They moved to the Fediverse
2.0: Western world & other English-speaking countries (2021). To the #Fediverse
3.0: UK (2024). To the Fediverse via #Threads
4.0: Brazil (2024). Mostly to #ATmosphere via #Bluesky
5.0: Global (2024). Mostly to ATmosphere, some Fediverse

Keep it going!

Seems nice but … how many users migrated in each step? And what percentage of total Twitter users?

@[email protected] It's hard to know. Only way is to compare what each network had prior to the migration. In the case of the Fediverse, based on the public tracking sites. While for The ATmosphere, based on official announcements.

@youronlyone that's only the larger ones though, there were more regional migrations too - for example many (left leaning, pro independence) Scottish people left Twitter at one point and moved to the Fediverse. #ScottishTwitterExodus

@[email protected] Ahh. It's not the same as the Twitter Migration 3.0 UK this year? IIRC, it was related to a politician saying something which prompted a lot of people to leave Twitter.
