I might just have to make my first ever social media account. We need this badly, I just hope it works and allows common folks to actually communicate without someone’s boot at our throat’s

Coming in March...Google and Apple refuse to list the app in their stores. As easy to predict as the sun rising in the East.

that may happen but..

I really don’t understand the fascination with apps

I rarely use them and just use the web browser on the phone when I am mobile

So Rumble is providing cloud for them? A hopeful sign that we may have a growing non leftist tech ecosystem. Just hope they don’t eventually get corrupted.

I don’t think you’ll need to download an app. Twitter and Free Republic don’t require an app.

Just a simple URL name will do.

"really don’t understand the fascination with apps."

Fascination with the app says that most people use their smart phones Waymore than they use their computers, especially for personal things like politics. Most corporations really frown on using work computers to access social media websites on only fools want to bring corporate attention to their social media, particularly patriots.

Yes Rumble is becoming the beachhead in the fight against big tech

1) They are going to expand their cloud hosting

2) they just bought into a payment processor

3) They are in Alpha testing for their in house ad system which they plan on expanding to 3rd party websites being cancelled by woke google ads

Nunes said yesterday that he is already using it and they will add more people to the Beta test in layers

Joking aside, I wonder how Truth Social is going to protect itself from cyber attacks. Its going to be a huge target, as much as a conservative forum is needed. Similarly, I wonder how they are going to screen out nut jobs and DU plants who will try to make the platform look bad. They will have to come up with something better than viking kitties (no offense to viking kitties, of course)

That obviously should be considered possible, if not expected. So much so, you have to wonder if that may not be the point of the whole juncture, in order to sue the device creators/carriers in order to force them to be accepted as a utility.

That angle would better explain making Devin Nunes the CEO, as he would have more legal experience, as former chair of the House Judiciary Committee, than technical experience/management.

Should be an all out blitz to have folks move to Brave. Half the country is gone from Google at that point.

I can only imagine the amount of attempted hacks and reaches that will be happening. They’ll stop at nothing to disrupt it.

Hope their ads venture works...its sorely needed to avoid kissing Google’s ring.

Rumble’s net worth is around $500 million. Truth Social if ran right and has the appeal people think, it is not out of the question of being a 1 trillion dollar company. I suspect they will own Rumble not to far in the near future.

Since Apple won’t place this on the app store, I will use the browser, and I will use DuckDuckGo for it.
