    SCOOP: Tried the Truth Social beta. But not the one Trump & his fans are testing, the one used internally by his team, which left the site publicly accessible online (again). Registered @realDonaldTrump & found a user praising dictator Augusto Pinochet https://www.dailydot.com/..…

    You may have heard that Trump's #TruthSocial app launched today. Well, it sort of did • Not on Android • Not on the web • US-only • Error messages when trying to create an account • New members join a waitlist currently over 170k people long https://www.vice.com/...

    Hand over all your data along with the privilege of paying a monthly fee... another ‘winning’ trump endeavor. https://twitter.com/...

    Today I expect a lot of ink to be spent on Trump's “Truth Social”. Now, just to be clear, this is the Trump vision of how to participate socially and tell the truth. I believe we know everything about it already. So, here's an idea: no air time.. #TruthSocial #Trump #socialmedia …

    So today is the day journalists sign up for Trump app, and find out it's just an email harvesting operation? Life. Apps. Regret. https://twitter.com/...

    Signed up for a TruthSocial account. App is supposedly working, but I'm “waitlisted.” Seems to be a very common thing. Never had this issue signing up for Twitter or snap or TikTok or parler or... Not an auspicious start for those investors who've valued this in the billions.

    Time to start the clock for when hackers will discover a massive security exploit that exposes user data. https://twitter.com/...

    Aside from the obvious @Apple should be ashamed Apparently they support insurrection. If I have to pay to get the truth.... it ain't the truth. https://twitter.com/...

    My experience so far with Trump's #TruthSocial app has been error messages that read “Something went wrong. Please try again.” https://www.cnet.com/...

    Oh jeez 🙄 so big tech isn't so bad now. https://twitter.com/...

    There's a fine line between “making an account and trolling people on the new Trump social app” and “becoming an avid user of the new Trump social app.” Be careful out there https://twitter.com/...

    Why should a coup plotter be in the Apple App Store? 🤨 https://twitter.com/...

    Will you stay on Twitter? I don't plan to once this platform becomes available. https://twitter.com/...

    I suspect it will be a very short time between launch and violating some kind of rule at Apple and it getting taken back down. https://twitter.com/...

    Soooo are y'all going to sign up for an account on Truth Social this week?? 🤣😂 https://www.reuters.com/...

    Trumps new network launching soon: The network's launch would mark Trump's return to social media since he was permanently banned from Twitter, Facebook and Youtube https://www.reuters.com/...

    America's woke legacy media & news outlets have become a cesspool of propaganda cesspits! Trump's Truth Social is rolling out & will roll over the evil of Facebook, Twitter, CNN, MSNBC, NYTimes, WaPo & so many more! 🤣
  • @hackingbutlegal Jackie Singh on x
    Can't wait to see what happens with this one. What'll it be? - Buggy code? - Insecure cloud bucket? - Vulnerable services? - App Store policy violations? - Verified account impersonations? - Supply chain-based deplatforming? - Prominent profile defacements? https://twitter.com/..…

    I'll never forget that w/ the last conservative app they made you enter your social security number and all your information to use the app and there ended up being a massive data leak and all that shit was just exposed https://twitter.com/...

    Kind of odd that, shortly before Trump's new right-wing social media platform, Truth Social, is supposed to launch his wife has announced that she is partnering with a rival right-wing social media platform, Parler https://twitter.com/...

    part of the problem with “Truth Social” is that it sounds like the name of a company founded by “Obama digital alums” who help Volkswagen with their “ESG social strategy” https://twitter.com/...

    Good write-up in the NYT! “[M]r. Miller said the former president was welcome ‘to join GETTR whenever he is ready.’ The site claims to have five million users and a cash pile of tens of millions of dollars.” https://www.nytimes.com/...

    “Parler, the platform popular with Trump supporters, is still reeling from its role after the violent protests at the U.S. Capitol in January 2021” https://www.nytimes.com/...
  • @amandamarcotte Amanda Marcotte on x
    The main reason Trump's social media will fail is it almost certainly wasn't meant to succeed. I predict the “product” will be the bare minimum to avoid lawsuits accusing Trump of creating a fake company to shake down gullible investors. https://www.nytimes.com/...

    We took a look at the companies trying to build MAGA social media. One fun detail: the investment co associated with Trump Media/Truth Social hired recruiters to reach out to former Parler employees to understand social networking. (w/ @MattGoldstein26) https://www.nytimes.com/..…
