Truth Social will need to change if they want more users.

They require a download and an account instead of letting users view posts from others, especially online.

I can view Twitter posts without an account, why not Truth Social posts?

According to reports, former President Trump’s widely anticipated social media platform “TRUTH Social” will come already baked-in with a content moderation function that Trump Media & Technology Group CEO Devin Nunes claims will keep the platform “family friendly.”

Family friendly is code word for censorship

Is anyone actually on Truth Social? It took me a week to get to the point of being on a huge waiting list. Meanwhile I get no fewer than half a dozen money begging emails from them daily. Not a good look.

As an unsubscribed user, I used to read a Tweet, and then the rest of the tweets on the page, approximately 30. About 1.5 months ago, a Twitter log in screen started popping up, and I can no longer read. They pop up before I’ve read the 2-3 response tweets. Blasted Twitter!
I heard Truth Social will be on PCs soon. If true, maybe then we can read the TS truths (trying to come up with a name for them).

Thanks for the positive review. I think it is outstanding, too.

I think posts are marked if there are swear words or nudity. You click, & then it is viewable. BFD.

Same here. I’ve been # 193,942 since I signed up. I cannot go anywhere from the “we love you but we’re overwhelmed” page.

So what is the purpose of this whole mishegoss if you can’t read or post ANYTHING??!? Scale up already!!

Seems like a waste of time from here...SSZ

This will be attacked at every level so hopefully it will be protected at every level.

Moderating out profanity is not censorship. You can still express all ideas and make your point...better, in fact... without resorting to profanity

I think this will probably end up as more a place for Trump supporters to talk amongst themselves. I suspect most people will see it as a “special interest group” type thing rather than something apolitical and generic.
(Something like how denominations have forums online - Catholic, Baptist, Methodists, etc.)
Maybe it’ll catch on bigtime across the board and rival existing socials, though it would surprise me if it were to do so.
It would be nice if something were started by free speech advocates who have no other axes to grind or ulterior motive outside of protecting 1st Amendment/speech.

“About 1.5 months ago, a Twitter log in screen started popping up, and I can no longer read. They pop up before I’ve read the 2-3 response tweets.”

What kind of rig you using to view it? e.g. PC, phone, browser?

I don’t know. Read this FReeper post about TS IDs of FReepers. Ask one of them: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4042040/posts#comment

On Windows with Firefox, I was able to kill that Twitter screen-block using this - might also work on other devices/browsers with this ad blocker:
