Happy new year, Equity listeners! At the end of 2024, all eyes were on Bluesky’s rapid growth. According to the social platform’s CEO Jay Graber, however, their goal is not just to recreate Twitter. Today, Rebecca is handing the reins over to TechCrunch senior reporter Max Zeff, who sat down with Graber at our last StrictlyVC event.
Listen to the full episode to hear pair dig into the company’s success and why, according to Graber, people need to, “be able to control the social networks they communicate on,” regardless of whether that continues to be Bluesky or another federated social platform.
Equity is TechCrunch’s flagship podcast and posts every Wednesday and Friday.
