In response to Elon Musk’s turbulent takeover of Twitter, alternative platforms have seen surges of attention and sign-ups in the past month. Open-source platform Mastodon saw downloads increase by 6000%, launching the social network’s MAU (monthly active users) to over two million.
However, another Twitter alternative has also been gaining a lot of buzz, and is striking a chord with Gen Z in particular.
It’s called Hive Social, a relatively new social media platform (first launched in October 2019) that is currently only available as an iOS app, though it plans an Android release sometime later this year.
