For a sense of perspective, Twitter has 106 million users in USA. 700 000 is 0.67% of that.
Also for a sense of perspective, Twitter is owned by a Trump salesman that lies about everything (including user numbers that affect ad revenue). I've seen Bluesky users mention that actual engagement with real people is already higher than Twitter. It definitely feels more "alive" to me as well.
Relevant video from PirateSoftware talking about the difference in engagement between them.
