There is no additional alternative. I don't think you understand. There are already two alternatives - Gettr and Truth Social - remember? Trump's company. I don't think the market can handle a third alternative.

Truth Social is barely functioning and Gettr gets zero buzz...there is not much going on there.

Twitter has 500 million tweets a day - that's a lot and it takes server farms around the world to handle the volume. Musk wants the social media company that is the gold standard. There is no reason on earth to start another one from scratch. This issue is about Twitter. Musk said that Twitter is the most important social media company and sets the standard of dialogue for the entire world. This is why he wants to own it to make sure there is an open dialogue and no suppression of data or canceling out a voice. If Twitter suspends someone, going on Gettr has zero effect/influence on anything.

This is a deathly serious fight and it is all hands on deck for the government and the oligarchs trying to stop Musk.

FR, GAB, and MeWe are the only functioning real free speech social media sites of any consequence right now.

What about Gab?

Andrew Torba, CEO of Gab, offered Musk a board seat. Torba has working software and infrastructure, unlike Truth Social.

See here for the offer Tweet.

Who said Truth is barely functioning? The media?

“Twitter has 500 million tweets a day - that’s a lot and it takes server farms around the world to handle the volume.”

Nice try, Dave. More than 60% of tweets are bots screaming at other bots. Did Twit pay you to post that garbage?
