Until there is an android application or a desktop version, I will not have any access to Trump’s site. I keep looking for information, but dang if I can find much, other than FR posts.
I hope they can get the site up and running on full strength by the end of this month. Meanwhile, I wait. :)
If Trump wants to run for and hold the office of POTUS, would he not be forced to drop any interest he holds in Truth Social or any similar media company, at least in order to avoid getting tangled up in a branle bush of (likely totally unfounded) accusations of domestic propaganda and voter manipulation?
How do you get it on PC? Anyone know?
correction: ...bramble bush...
In the bigger scheme of things, consider the weight each individual invests in what they read, and whether they accord that same weight to all other readers. It’s a mess. Everyone who publishes on the web thinks they have a megaphone, when in fact the bulk is ignored. Broadcast media is not an easy entity to dissect in the way of effectiveness. Just because millions might be reading, hearing, or watching, does not mean millions swallow. That’s Kamala’s job.
Every time I try to log in, I told I’m still on the waiting list. 772,495
I was 180,000 in line and I’ve been on for a couple of weeks
Back to getting my daily dose of catturd
Twitter banned me for life because I kept tweeting at owlish et al
you’re FOS. Trump gave a good interview on 2/26 and Nunes has been all over different interviews talking about how it’s going. It’s still in beta testing on only apple devices....you know that right? they’ll roll out android soon which should increase users by 75%.
It sucks. I only have 1,000 connections.
The way they are rolling this out seems strange. Personally I don’t have much in the way of expectations for it. And it will be interesting to see what they consider to be free speech - somehow I don’t see that happening either.
75% is optimistic. Web version would be more valuable.
I’m in the TS site on my iPhone, but am also looking forward to the desktop version.
I do prefer replying/reading on my desktop vs my android phone. These old eyes .... they like the big screen.
I'm thinking there are multiple waitlists because there appears to be over a half million people in the app based on the fact Trump already has over 596,000 followers and Dan Bongino is up to 370,000 followers.
Anyway, for those still stuck on the waitlist, don't despair that you will lose your coveted "Joined date". I got put on the waitlist February 20th and that is my official join date in my profile. So I can now claim I've been on Truth Social since Day One.
The app is pretty slick and very similar to Twitter. I quickly followed about a hundred people and my feed is yielding a lot of great info.
Everybody so far has seemed very positive. Finally, it appears there is a place on social media where real patriotic Americans can congregate. I think this app has great potential.
I can only imagine that in the near future, the entire waitlist will get on and people on the Android platform will be next.
I can easily see this app scaling up to over a hundred million users in the near future. I'm talking weeks or maybe a few months.
Yeah, I sometimes have to break out the old reading glasses to use my phone.
They’re still not allowing any access via the website. I won’t put an app on my phone in order to go there. I’m not really into social networking to begin with. Never did Twitter, Facebook, or the earlier ones. Joined Parler, Gab, and Gettr, but deleted them all because I never used them. Earlier attempts to subscribe on Truth Social, all met a repeated 405 Not Allowed error. Then the subscription page disappeared, and it hasn’t come back. It’s app only. If they ever allow you to join on their website, I might check it out. FR has been my home for 24 years, and as far as I’m concerned, it can’t be beat.
That's my take whenever I look for information as to when it'll be available for these two platforms. That information doesn't exist. One would think a company that markets itself as a more savvy social media platform would do some marketing to build suspense, tell Android and browser based users when the platform will be available for them and yet ... (crickets)
I'm just not interested in "Truth Social" anymore. They've blown it IMO.
For those of you who'll get your panties in a wad over my post, GFYS. I don't care what you think. See how that works?
Android is in the works.
There are 2 keywords, truth & social. I’ve tried putting in 2 separate keywords before, and I get results for truth and social, not truth social. How do I get results for truth social that way?
