Truth Social aims to distinguish itself through its content moderation philosophy, with the website calling it „America’s ‚Big Tent‘ social media platform.“
Truth Social, a new social media platform backed by former President Donald Trump, sat at the top of Apple ’s free apps download charts as of Tuesday morning. The platform unveiled a soft launch late Sunday, according to Reuters, with many users prompted to join a waitlist. Some who tried to sign up reported glitches when attempting to create an account, though such issues are common in early app releases. Truth Social has been delayed several times. The full launch was first planned for Feb.21, but that date has been pushed back to March 31. The app is a product of the Trump Media & Technology Group, led by former Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif. The company has planned to go public via merger with the Digital World Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition corporation, or SPAC, with a market cap of more than $3 billion.
