Hive, Yet Another Twitter Alternative, Sees Surge In New Users: Report

Twitter alternative Hive Social has seen a boost in new sign-ups since users started switching to other social media platforms after Elon Musk's takeover of the micro-blogging platform. Founded in 2019 by Kassandra Pop, Hive is not a Twitter clone but a Generation Z-focused social platform which combines ideas from many other social-media applications, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and even MySpace. Former Twitter users seeking a new home are likely to feel more at ease with Hive because of the application's simple and familiar set of navigation options. Despite Musk claiming that Twitter’s usage is at an all-time high, several users are migrating to other apps such as the decentralised Mastodon and the homegrown Koo, the latter of which recently forayed into the Brazilian market with an overwhelming response.
