"Truth Social has completed a migration to a massive cloud computing infrastructure run by the video giant Rumble, clearing the way for the social platform started by former President Donald Trump to onboard millions of users quickly, officials told Just the News.

The partnership between two of the nation's emerging free speech platforms — completed this week — means Truth Social will be ending its beta testing and controlled account creation and moving quickly to erase a backlog of consumers who have been waiting a few weeks to join the platform........"

Im sure there is a reason why TS went with the Apple OS first but it only makes me trust them less. After Parler, Gab and the DS players behind Gettr, I cant trust any of them.

What cloud was it on before ? I can’t imagine AWS or GCP.

It appears you need the smartphone app to use it. No browser interface. I don’t do smartphones, and I predict that if this really picks up steam, they will block it on both Apple and Android. For those of you who are on there now, make sure you save the .apk in case you or someone else needs to sideload it.

@realDonaldTrump has been gaining multiple followers EVERY SECOND since yesterday.

As far as I can learn, Trump has only "truthed" one single time on Truth Social. How come he's not using it himself?

It’s been a month since I tried unsuccessfully to get on. I checked daily for several weeks with no luck. I am bored with Truth Social. I am done with Truth Social.

This roll out was an embarrassment.

Rumble is great but their video player is POS.

Also all of these sites need to offer audio-only streams at low but rates. 12 kbps AAC is plenty. Then we addicts could listen all the time in car.

They will have to be able to serve Android and the PC Desktop to be successful as does Facebook and Twitter.

Best bet is to stay with FR. Apple, Google, or some server host can take Truth Social out anytime it wants.

Agree! Parler was a mess. I have it but don’t post. A Site needs to be Fully operational to invest time in, even Trump’s site.

He’s waiting for everybody to get on. He might wait until Android and Web users are on as well.

The partnership with Rumble was to head that off. Yes, Apple can remove the Truth Social app but the content now resides on the Rumble platform. Free Republic never had an app but many of us throw a shortcut on our phone home screens and we get an app-like experience just the same.

With the Rumble partnership, Truth Social is truly free of big-tech interference.

Not really. They are using big tech to monitor “free speech”. There will be censorship to keep it “family friendly”

Nothing is censored there. You click on the “warning” and the flagged content pops up.

Apple can de-platform it at any time.

And even Musk cannot threaten to buy out Apple.

Confused here. I registered on the PC version the day it was announced. When I try to sign on with the PC version, I get 2 screen shots. There are some people that know their waiting order in the queue is that for the PC version? Can you sign in to Rumble to access Truth Social? Not PC literate only confused. Should I just cool my jets?

Trump platform ready to onboard millions

As long as you have an iPhone. Android, no worky, web app, no worky. Is Tim Cook one of the financiers?
