While Trump’s social media platform, Truth Social, works quite well for those on it, the problem with the platform is that it has let not that many people on, trying to slowly dribble a stream of users into the platform to ensure that it works correctly for all those posting on it.
A good idea in theory, that’s been problematic for those that wanted to use the platform but have been stuck on a waiting list since the app was released on the app store, something that’s proven highly frustrating to many MAGA patriots that want to use the app but can’t.
Well, the Truth Social team might have finally found a way to blast through the impasse: they’re bringing the app to the cloud of Rumble, the free speech video platform, which should give the platform all the space it needs to bring all the waiting future users on and let them start posting. Reporting on that, Just the News said:
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.

That's 10,000 more in the past half hour.
Looks like the floodgates have opened.
Those on the waitlist should check their emails this weekend.
Another 100,000 followers in the past half hour. Trump now up to 1,150,000 followers on Truth Social.
I just started over from scratch and got right on.
No thanks. If I have to put an app on my phone to access the site, I'll pass. I won't download any apps to my iPhone. I don't even use 99% of the crap it came with.
@BurgessKoch for me.
Nunes just confirmed that the waitlist has been cleared per John Solomon
“I’ve been at 176,808 since day one. Tried logging out and back in. Nada.”
______________________________
I was on the waitlist from day #1 at about 364,240 at the 7 week mark I sent emails to the various suggested addresses and one of those seem to have done the trick.
It seems like the people on FR and some of the various pro Trump facebooks that are trying to get a handle on what is going on at TS are themselves not actually on the platform and really only speculating as to when things are going to normalize. In other words a lot of the pom pom girls are not actually at the game.
So a few weeks into my TS experience so far not a whole lot there to be honest and as far as the damage done to the brand I think it will take a while for TS to recover. I still think it will be late summer before things settle down.
I few things I find amusing, first some on FR think Apple phone users are “elites” with expensive phones. I bought my iPhone7 years ago used paid $160.00 and my cell provider is Boost Mobile cost is month to month (no contract) $30 not the least expensive but close to it.
I have had both Android and Apple phones and simple truth Apple is more reliable. But it is a personal thing really a phone is a phone.
While I look forward to a pc based access to TS the idea that some have that your personal data is less secure on a phone is silly. The government already knows more about you and me than we know about you and me.
In summery TS is ok, not at this point worth the overall aggravation but send emails if you are not in yet that might work.
I’ve been on for a while. Not much content yet and no content search facility so right now mainly for messaging between folks on the platform already
He’s already up to 1.2m+!! super excited to get on when the android web app comes out. I think it will be this coming week.
They absolutely are providing a desktop app and it should quickly follow now that Apple is done
Woot! Woot!
