According to the report, product managers, data scientists and engineers were among those that were let go by the company.<\/p>\n<p>While Twitter grappled with its latest outage, Dorsey\u2019s decentralized social media platform Bluesky went into private beta testing.

The social media app also rolled out a cryptocurrency price search feature in January which featured over 30 different tokens.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bluesky <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/blueskyweb.org\/blog\/2-28-2022-how-it-started\">emerged<\/a> as a side product of Twitter in 2019, aiming to create an open and decentralized standard for social media. Meanwhile, another decentralized social media platform, Damus, went live in February 2023 as well.
