You really need to follow a lot of people to get true benefit out of Truth (or other social media for that matter). Otherwise you are going to have not much of a news feed.

Of course the more you follow, the more out of control your news feed can get. I follow about 2,000 accounts and it's impossible to keep up with all the information streaming by. But because most people post and re-post the same information, you are not likely to miss anything important.

Over when I was on Twitter, I had nearly 6,000 accounts I was following. The way I got around the noise was to build filters. For example, I would dump all the meterologists that I followed into a list and call it "Weather". Then when I clicked on that filter, all I saw in my feed was weather-related information. I then did the same for other categories such as music, politics, news, etc.

I'm anticipating Truth will bring that functionality into their platform as that is the best way to build curated news feeds.

In the meantime, maybe we should start a #FreeperTruthSocial ping list over here?

I'll continue to use FR for my news feed. After saying I wasn't going to join right now, I decided to try registering. Had problems with Spectrum blocking the verification emails, so signed up using my rarely used yahoo email address. It went right through. I'm only following President Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene at the moment. I'm not much into social media, but would at least like to see what the real President is actually saying, instead of reading it after it's filtered through online news articles.

The filters feature would help a lot - because I’m interested in issues or events more than I am people.

For a while, all I wanted to read about was the stolen election.
