If anyone installed Maga Hub get it off of your phone. I seen it mentioned in the past and again in this thread. Whoever told you it would connect you to Truth Social was lying. Stop installing apps especially from the google play store, it's mostly malware. Wait for web browser access...
Large and smaller brands use its services. It counts enterprise businesses like Walmart, Visa and ABInBev as clients, as well as Reddit and Giphy (which was acquired by Facebook, now Meta, in 2020).
I'm a pretty big Truth Shall Set Us free guy, but I also find this suboptimal at best and "troubling" on a sliding scale downward at worst.
We'll see how it... Develops (!) but as someone who highly values anonymity and personal computing security I'm not happy. I only choose to install a small handful of apps on my phone, and nothing even close to as possibly incendiary as a Social Media app.
Apple spies on you indiscriminately. It's in "always record" mode. They record your camera data and your microphone data, and transmit it to their servers.
Did you ever take two seconds to think that maybe that’s exactly why it’s on Apple first? Apple tightly controls everything so it stands to reason you need more time to get the bugs worked out and work around apples bullshit.
I swear give a starving man a fish and he’ll bitch about it being the wrong kind of fish.
That's what the testing phase is for....you don't launch a product to test it. Anyone telling you they did it this way to test it out is lying. They have big investors and they made them push an incomplete product early.
Nothing in your response addresses what I said - all you present is a strawman argument.
How would being on Apple first (or second, or third, etc.) prevent them from recording your camera and microphone data and transmitting it to their servers? It wouldn't.
Yeah I'm not using anything that requires you to know my IMEI, location at all times, etc. It's just so obviously not worth it- just another tracker / data miner that happens to know all of your political opinions as well.
Why are the boomers downvoting you I guess they all have iPhones probably hold them really far away from their faces as they squint and try to push the newfangled buttons. I'm incredibly saddened and concerned that they only did the iPhone version it is much harder to get a app on the Apple store than it is on the Android store The fact that they haven't even done Android and only accomplished Apple is really weird.
Thanks for the reminder! I totally forgot... at least Dunkin Donuts will be open😁That has nothing to do with anything, I'm just happy it's not a holiday that affects my donut and coffee consumption🐸
Humans are hard wired to crave sucrose and fructose
The problem isn't sugar, the problem is the American life style. Try running a marathon effectively or power lifting without simple sugars. You can't, period, at least not as well as you could.
The other problem is HFCS and artificial sweetners have completely screwed over people's glycemic response. Going on a temporary sugar fast then retraining the response is the actual key to everything.
So I'll stick to two scoops just like Trumpy bear.
HFCS is the real problem. Remember how corn growers, read Archer Daniels Midland, had ads saying HFCS is absorbed the same way sugar is and that the body doesn't know the difference? They lied - imagine that.
There is no chemical bond in HFCS, when we consume it, no digestion is needed to separate the glucose from the fructose. The sugars are immediately absorbed into the bloodstream. It goes straight to the liver. This is one of the causes of fatty liver, insulin resistance, etc.
In grade school through college, I can think of less than 10 fellow students who were overweight -10. This was from 1964-1980. HFCS became a sugar substitute in the late 70's. By the early 80's, I noticed that girls in my younger brothers' classes were getting heavier than we had been. It's just gotten worse through the decades.
And that was your nutrition less on for the day. 😀
Refined, bleached sugar is what I was referring to. I was responding to a post about donuts and coffee. Not oranges. This is mostly a strawman argument
Methinks after all these years the parasite connection and feeding off the sugar and their is your problem... IVERMECTIN wins.
If you have done pre-ivermectin knowledge detoxes, and take IVERMECTIN and realize it kills all these sugar craving parasites overnight then you realize why they have laced the food supplies with sugar 24/7 for decades.
Ivermectin clears up a lot of gut problems almost overnight.
Parasites.
Then the sugar cravings go and your normal appetite returns.
All the cravings are parasite eating schedule. They control your mind to make bad sugary food choices.
Anyone who has detoxed knows this, and then if you have taken Ivermectin, you most likely will have experienced this (taken with fat to get into blood stream) but without the discipline and struggle, but hey that's ok, because it is not easy and people need help fast.
Once you get your mind back, exercise and good food choices become possible.
BREAK THE MIND CONTROL
Now you know why they do not want people taking this.
Due to the overwhelming demand at launch, we are currently rate-limited on onboarding new users to the platform. We are working to increase signup capacity for onboarding and will continue to update this status as capacity increases.
Apple is a piece of shit liberal company that spies on its users, records everything you point your camera at (even when off), records conversations and sells them to G, FB, etc.
I do not understand why they would prioritize Apple over Android.
LOL Android is not worse by any measure in terms of privacy, that is just an absolutely ludicrous statement. And Apple is #1 in the US.
Apple treats you like a child, you can't disable their core functions. They record your microphone and camera input data use even when your phone isn't on.
With Android you can gut it the way you like it if you know what you're doing. Even flash a new OS if you want. My firewall blocks ALL google, fb, twit etc. domains. And I have all services disabled that I don't use like gmail, maps etc.
This is true. Currently using GrapheneOS on an Android device after full overhaul. Data has never been safer (and 5G is disabled until we learn more). Privacy and security are key in our lives, and this is the way.
Perhaps a write up for our frens here on why and how to do this is in order. Happy to see more folks gaining their data privacy.
Thoughts?
Some reading if you're savvy enough to do this yourself:

You have an unbelievably false sense of security lol. 99% of mobile malware targets Android devices, because they’re the easiest targets. If you think your mobile firewall is bulletproof you’re kidding yourself. Android is no better than iOS and in many cases, far worse.
More like, I have an unbelievably rich understanding of internet privacy. I also have adblocking enabled and JS disabled in my browsers. Only visit trusted sites, etc.
Besides, the argument isn't against hackers or external bad actors, the argument here is against the phone OS itself. Apple is undefeated, you can't stop them from recording your conversations and sending them to the cloud.
I'm a relative caveman myself when it comes to mobile. Don't have the inclination + time to learn it up to the standards I would set myself if I did dig in too much....
It's cumulative knowledge and hours of fiddling around. Find a good firewall you are comfortable with, play around in settings and decide what you're comfortable with giving up. Some people simply cannot function without the stock google apps, or twitter etc.
Me as well. There has been quite a few NEW social networks, Parler, Gettr, Frank Speech, Clout Hub, Pill, Foxhole & Telegram (which I think is beastly to use). Besides folks will be dashing over here to post the latest news. We won’t miss a beat. There is plenty of cross pollination on the networks that are not into censorship. My fave is gab, but I don’t consider it new.
It downloaded onto my devices but when click to create account it says "Something went wrong. Please try again." Maybe it downloads onto your device, but we have to wait until midnight (2/21) to create an account.
Multiple people are saying the site is crashing with so many of us trying to make accounts.
I was able to go through a few steps until the end to create username. It’s either saying error or to use a different username. I think it’s just the amount of traffic at once
Do you believe I'm still stuck on the phone number page? I keep hitting the next button but it then will say I need so many seconds till I can try again, over and over and over... for the last hour.
Just let me enter date of birth but no "next" button, so don't know what to do now.
Damnit I accidently hit the "sign in if you have an account button" and now I'm stuck on this page and it won't let me go back and error when I click create a new account.... ;( wanna cry! Almost had it!
Ok it brought up the birthday page again & has a "Next" button, but says Error when I click next. So I guess each step we may have to wait a few minutes. Hope I get through it this time! Fingers crossed!!!
Yeah I did and got the email confirmation page but it isn't sending me an email. I've requested a rescind email like 4 or 5 times now and still no email.
This alone makes me consider never wasting my time on that truth social place since I don't use Apple products, never have and never will. I don't like Android either, I prefer doing most things on PC but Apple products typically don't allow as much freedom as Android or PC. I know people that swear that Apple is far superior over Android and maybe it is but I rarely use my phone or tablet anyways and some apps I use I've read won't even install on iphones.
It's just my opinion but this is a bad move, releasing an app available only to one device/platform. More than twice as many people use Android over Iphone, just a simple statistic that can easily be verified online so this decision to push out the app on just iphone for a month is not good for business. I will say maybe they're using iphone only for the 1st month before allowing the bulk of web traffic from Android and PC.
I don't use twitter, gab, or any of that garbage so it won't bother me if I never made an account on Truth Social. People are likely in for some disappointment though over something overly hyped. I hope I'm wrong but we'll see.
Everyone I know, friends and family are all against the covid vaccine and none have gotten it but anytime things we'd regularly talk about on here are brought up, it seems people simply have little or no interest. I don't know what it will take to get some people to want to open their eyes to the real world that we live in.
Most people still want to just go to work, go out to eat, go to the bars, go home watch tv or lounge and live life as if nothing major is going on. Sure they complain about inflation and how horrible of a job government is doing but when it comes to the endless crimes of the cabal and governments around the world, it seems people just don't care to know about it.
Maybe it's denial, maybe some people would rather not know what has been happening. There might come a day when that kind of information will be impossible for them to avoid. Some will become filled with rage and anger over it while some will sink into deep denial.
One of the best ways to compare it I think would be regarding religion. Some people believe in god or a god while some people do not.
If god were proven 100% without any doubt to not exist, what would that do to a religious person's mentality?
If god were proven 100% without any doubt to exist and be very real, what would that do to a person's mentality that some would call an atheist?
Typing it out makes it seem like something from the Matrix movies. If one day people were shown without any possible doubt that the world they believed they were living in was not actually what they believed it to be. There would be a problem in all of this though. If the person that believed in god strongly found out god was not real then what purpose would they have left in their lives since religious people do devote a large portion of their lives to what they believe in.
The atheist would more likely feel depressed or betrayed because then they would realize that human life holds no legitimate value if there is an all powerful god then humans would be nothing more than one of many creations.
This would be interesting to debate as to how people would react to learning what has been going on in secret that most people don't know about and most would struggle to even believe. It could be on an extreme level causing people to question their entire life and existence if they knew everything.
People like myself naturally enjoy researching things. I've learned about many of the things talked about on here before the internet even was a thing. Back then decades ago it was a lot harder to find information and quite difficult to verify information to be accurate. Some information never really was verified to be accurate until the created of the internet and several years of information being spread around.
If people are simply shown that this or that person or persons are criminals and raped and killed kids, drank blood, mass murdered, that alone is horrible but this shit could take a very long time to talk about in any bit of detail even among people knowledgeable about it. The problem is that people need to be awakened to as much of it as possible or else they may not reach that point of saying never again and actually meaning it.
I don't know if Truth Social will be a platform to actually wake up the masses to things or if it will just be another waste of time like so many other platforms are. I say waste of time because places like Gab, Bitchute, Odyssee, Rumble, etc are mostly used by people that already have reasonable knowledge of things going on. If a new platform doesn't reach the people needed to be reached then it too would be a waste of time.
I agree. The fact that the information isn’t directly out there already is a problem. Nobody who isn’t “in the know” have no idea or belief that any clue of what you’re talking about is even going on. We need to make this information impossible to avoid
People don't have enough interest to want to see facts. I could go about things wrong but I'm one that never pushes anything onto anyone. Someone either is interested or they're not. My best friend that I've known over 30 years, he just says they all need to hang but that's about as far as his interest goes.
I'm in the same camp as u/southbeatz (btw, great to see you again!) . And yes, at this point we here are below + outside of the real NEED to have Truth Social. We get the info regardless.
What I'm very excited about the platform is that it'll hopefully provide an impermeable location for all the media and information we share here to be more centrally and (in the eyes of normies) legitimately hosted.l
Diseminating info via catbox, GAW and hundreds of upsidedown looking "Zoltan's Q Powerblog"s makes our jobs exponentially more difficult than it should be.
That said ARCHIVE EVERYTHING OFFLINE still applies, and always will.
Even with DJT himself at the top of Truth Social, its power will remain limited unless something changes regarding the media. It's easy for us to say the media are a bunch of liars and in some cases even criminals but there are a lot of people that still believe the media over anything they'd see on a website.
Parlor, Gab, Rumble, Bitchute, Oddysee all are solid sources but misinformation is way out of control on those platforms as well. MSM is the worst for misinformation but MSM has many decades of being what people have watched. Then there's the reality that news media is not as popular as most believe it to be.
The superbowl which honestly should get 0 viewers but that's just my opinion, it still got a little over 99 million total viewers on broadcast TV alone. Many CNN shows struggle to get half a million viewers while there have been shows on Fox News to get 4 or 5 million viewers, it's still a reminder that most people don't watch the news.
Most people in many ways are completely useless to the human race because they only care about their own little world and do not care what is going on outside of their little precious house they bought. Everyone I know has chosen to not get the vaccine but not because of political reasons but because they simply don't trust a vaccine that hasn't been tested properly.
That's as far as it gets with all of them though. Try talking to them about anything going on that we'd talk about on here and they have zero interest. They don't even care about inflation although they understand inflation. Just because they can afford to pay 2 or 3 times more in gas, they seem to still not care because they have money.
There probably will not be any getting through to those types of people unless the cabal caused them to start losing things like their brand new cars, their houses, their jobs. If they did though, the normies would blame it on government when we all know government is run by mere puppets. I don't see any sign of people ever waking up to the real world.
It's a typical marketing ploy. Here's our new thing but it's only for the Special People. Then the more that people can't have it, the more desirable it appears to be!
Google did the same thing with their social media platform. I genuinely can't even remember what it was called; they have abandoned it now anyway. I do recall though that you needed an invite from an existing member and people were fighting to get one.
Obviously, any such platform needs mass adoption if it is to be any good so I doubt that the "sorry you cannot join our exclusive club" will last very long.
There is the possibility that Trump just wanted his own platform to speak freely on. The idea of creating demand due to limiting availability doesn't always work though. I remember many years ago when I used to play MMO games online, at launch those types of games would be packed with queues but after a month or two the player base would go way down.
It's that whole first impression thing. Without pushing hard as possible, Truth Social will be no more popular than Parlor or Gab.
My guess is to limit web traffic until it's stable but if that were the case then I'd just say if they can't launch something 100% then why waste time halfway doing something. If Apple tried to censor it, at least apps can on Android can be installed without the Play store app. If it were simply normal and had everything available on the website from the start then apps wouldn't matter.
I still prefer using things through web browsers instead of apps even on my phone. If there's not an actual need or actual big benefit from an app version of something compared to the website version then I always stick to the website version but I also only use my phone or tablet when I'm away from home and even then I rarely use them.
I'm not obsessed with phones so when I'm out and about going places, I do have my phone in my pocket but rarely ever take it out unless I want to take pictures of something or to use it for Amazon music in my car. I prefer Amazon music for my music listening because it's convenient and allows me to listen to everything without having to waste my money supporting artists with old songs I like but don't deserve money.
It downloaded onto my devices but when click to create account it says "Something went wrong. Please try again." Maybe it downloads onto your device, but we have to wait until midnight (2/21) to create an account.
Multiple people are saying the site is crashing with so many of us trying to make accounts.
Over 126k on the waitlist but I got my real name which as an author is really important to me. Take that, other person that got our name on Twitter and who posted only a couple times.
Waitlist number 183. Letsss goooo I gotta be up in 3 hrs!! Everything that’s been censored the last 3 yrs by big tech bout to get dropped hard and heavy. Will be closely watching DWAC tomorrow too. Red pill for you! Red pill for you! ERRBODY GETTIN A RED PILL!
So fellow pedes, I was able to finally get in and register my account however it said due to the overwhelming demand we have put you on our waitlist. It does tell you where you are in the queue though. Just a heads up :)
Still cant even complete registration. Email doesn't come through to verify. No, its not in junk. Tried various email addresses on different platforms.
I'm at the part where I can create the username and finish creating the process but the error messages (Something went wrong. Please try again) keep popping up. Sometimes, I'll get it to where it says "Please choose a different username to continue. Thanks!"
If anyone installed Maga Hub get it off of your phone. I seen it mentioned in the past and again in this thread. Whoever told you it would connect you to Truth Social was lying. Stop installing apps especially from the google play store, it's mostly malware. Wait for web browser access...
Yes I found that out👍

Wtf this delta shit is crazy sometimes
HOW MANY COINCIDENCESSSS

lmfao. that’ll turn your average q sceptic’s head real quick
Fuck yes!!! This is right up there with Tippy Top!👌
That's what brought me here. It was a top proof, a tippy top proof
same. fucking incredible.
Yes, it's almost as if the same people who started Truth Social were also involved with Q. Hmm...

Amazingly close. But isn't a day off? The delta is February 20th. It went live on the 21st.
I got the email notification from Apple store at 10:35 pm on Feb 20. So, it went active on Feb 20 and could download from the store.
I got the notification from the Apple store at 11pm on Feb 20
Look at the 1 year delta posts. Lot of them contain TRUTH

Hijacking: on Android it leads us to MAGA Hub, not Truth Social... Weird...
Because it's only on Apple for now. Maga Hub is NOT Truth Social.
Maaannn that is so gay.
So.. they don't discriminate against ideology but do discriminate against OS.
And it's only available on the LEAST privacy oriented OS. And no desktop version. shrug
I'm a pretty big Truth Shall Set Us free guy, but I also find this suboptimal at best and "troubling" on a sliding scale downward at worst.
We'll see how it... Develops (!) but as someone who highly values anonymity and personal computing security I'm not happy. I only choose to install a small handful of apps on my phone, and nothing even close to as possibly incendiary as a Social Media app.

No desktop version. WTF
Once it's on Android, you can run it on desktop using either an Android emulator or VM.
taps forehead
Sigh.+1
The world REALLY shouldn't be this way, should it?
Powerusers unite.
Is that what they said?
Because thati put a damper in things real quick
Yeah I'm not using anything that requires you to know my IMEI, location at all times, etc. It's just so obviously not worth it- just another tracker / data miner that happens to know all of your political opinions as well.
Hope this doesn't turn into a shit show
Why are the boomers downvoting you I guess they all have iPhones probably hold them really far away from their faces as they squint and try to push the newfangled buttons. I'm incredibly saddened and concerned that they only did the iPhone version it is much harder to get a app on the Apple store than it is on the Android store The fact that they haven't even done Android and only accomplished Apple is really weird.
It's almost like they want to feed Apple the private data and opinions of patriots. If not the intention, it's certainly the end result.
Is there any ETA for Android ?
I believe march
Really? Who would have thought the google play store is full of malware.
Stop installing apps and use your browsers.
fuuck I never paid any attention to date, just the content of this post... and I read it dozens of times
I think all 80 million of us are hitting the servers hard lol
Can't wait to see DWAC in the morning🐸
Unfortunately, markets are closed tomorrow (02/21).
Thanks for the reminder! I totally forgot... at least Dunkin Donuts will be open😁That has nothing to do with anything, I'm just happy it's not a holiday that affects my donut and coffee consumption🐸
Sugar = cancer. Sorry, can't let this go unchecked in a truth forum. Cut sugar from your diet and you will instantly look and feel better.
Humans are hard wired to crave sucrose and fructose
The problem isn't sugar, the problem is the American life style. Try running a marathon effectively or power lifting without simple sugars. You can't, period, at least not as well as you could.

Thank YOU good sir.... wait... ((gasp)) I've been misgendered!! REEEEE! Hehe👌
Ohhhh yes 😎 Let’s goooooo!
That’s exactly what I thought when I read the title. 🍻
They rate-limited the user registration: https://truthsocial.statuspage.io/
It won’t even send me an SMS verification code.
same !
Same here, stuck on that step
As of 30 minutes ago:
Roger 👍🏽 I’m a patient man.
I’m In line #325
You so lucky, Im #12.745
Somehow I got to the back of the line now!
Same boat. Started off last night at 1,646 and this morning I'm at 93,141.
My android and I are feeling so excluded.
Me, too!!! 😭
Apple is a piece of shit liberal company that spies on its users, records everything you point your camera at (even when off), records conversations and sells them to G, FB, etc.
I do not understand why they would prioritize Apple over Android.
It's more popular in the US and Android is even worse when it comes to spying.
Apple and android are both fake and gay on the spying dept. why people squabble over apple vs android is beyond me
We’re hardwired for division.
And unity
Truth!! 💕
LOL Android is not worse by any measure in terms of privacy, that is just an absolutely ludicrous statement. And Apple is #1 in the US.
Apple treats you like a child, you can't disable their core functions. They record your microphone and camera input data use even when your phone isn't on.

Yeah, I'm an Android user myself. On default settings it's pretty bad though, it even periodically sends your location to Google.
On default settings EVERYTHING is pretty bad. All things equal, with some tech savviness, Android is a safer haven than Apple hands down.
Exactly
This is true. Currently using GrapheneOS on an Android device after full overhaul. Data has never been safer (and 5G is disabled until we learn more). Privacy and security are key in our lives, and this is the way.
Perhaps a write up for our frens here on why and how to do this is in order. Happy to see more folks gaining their data privacy.

Some reading if you're savvy enough to do this yourself:
Grapheneos.org
Graphene you say? Isn't that the poison in the jabs?
Why yes it is, and the fibers in face masks, too, but, for once on this site, it actually IS a coincidence.
You have an unbelievably false sense of security lol. 99% of mobile malware targets Android devices, because they’re the easiest targets. If you think your mobile firewall is bulletproof you’re kidding yourself. Android is no better than iOS and in many cases, far worse.
I'm assuming OP's talking about an external firewall which is connected to phone via Wi-Fi.
I run a Pi-Hole on my home network. I can block anything I want from interacting with my phone and other devices.
More like, I have an unbelievably rich understanding of internet privacy. I also have adblocking enabled and JS disabled in my browsers. Only visit trusted sites, etc.
Besides, the argument isn't against hackers or external bad actors, the argument here is against the phone OS itself. Apple is undefeated, you can't stop them from recording your conversations and sending them to the cloud.
I used to fix other peoples Androids constantly sucking down malware. Never had issues on my iPhones.
Is there a couple good trustworthy tutorials out that explains how to do this? I'd look it up but wouldn't know where to begin.. Thank you in advance
Do what, exactly?
Don’t get a false sense of security. If you are not de-googled, Android is at least as bad.
Not my first rodeo. I have a firewall that blocks all google domains and everything is disabled. No mail, calendar, map, etc.
Any chance you mind helping a caveman out to do same as you?
I'm a relative caveman myself when it comes to mobile. Don't have the inclination + time to learn it up to the standards I would set myself if I did dig in too much....
But, if you want to do it, start by digging around for your phone model @ https://forum.xda-developers.com/
It's cumulative knowledge and hours of fiddling around. Find a good firewall you are comfortable with, play around in settings and decide what you're comfortable with giving up. Some people simply cannot function without the stock google apps, or twitter etc.
I'm afraid Android does the same via Google, that's why I use a Blackberry but they sabotaged a great tech company.
As an android user I am okay waiting out the hug of death to join.
Me as well. There has been quite a few NEW social networks, Parler, Gettr, Frank Speech, Clout Hub, Pill, Foxhole & Telegram (which I think is beastly to use). Besides folks will be dashing over here to post the latest news. We won’t miss a beat. There is plenty of cross pollination on the networks that are not into censorship. My fave is gab, but I don’t consider it new.
Me too.
Australia here: the world's greatest party is happening and we didn't get invited. :-(
Me too! :-(
It downloaded onto my devices but when click to create account it says "Something went wrong. Please try again." Maybe it downloads onto your device, but we have to wait until midnight (2/21) to create an account.
Multiple people are saying the site is crashing with so many of us trying to make accounts.
I was able to go through a few steps until the end to create username. It’s either saying error or to use a different username. I think it’s just the amount of traffic at once

Keep trying.., I just got in... but my waitlist number is 2,969! 🤦🏻♀️😂
Mine is 149,260 😆
My waitlist number is 134,033. Looks like it is going to be pretty popular.
Had issues since starting at 11p Eastern. Finally got it done 10 minutes ago and im right behind you. Feels like old school ticketmaster days.
I’m 150,574 it’s a twitter killer
Do you believe I'm still stuck on the phone number page? I keep hitting the next button but it then will say I need so many seconds till I can try again, over and over and over... for the last hour.
Try going through email instead of your phone number... 😉
I got stuck on the confirmation code text, then the app timed out while I was doing other things and I can’t get past the very first screen.
Flounder is floundering
Same let me know if you get it to work!
Will do! I keep hitting the create account button but still nothing so far.
Just let me enter date of birth but no "next" button, so don't know what to do now.
Damnit I accidently hit the "sign in if you have an account button" and now I'm stuck on this page and it won't let me go back and error when I click create a new account.... ;( wanna cry! Almost had it!
Ok it brought up the birthday page again & has a "Next" button, but says Error when I click next. So I guess each step we may have to wait a few minutes. Hope I get through it this time! Fingers crossed!!!
If you get "Something went wrong. Please try again.", just kill the app re-run it and it should create the account and email you the confirmation.
Yeah I did and got the email confirmation page but it isn't sending me an email. I've requested a rescind email like 4 or 5 times now and still no email.
I only found an app for IPhone, is there an app for other devices also?
Think someone mention for other devices it will be available next month, I'm not positive though.
= this is a decade regarding the acceleration of events. Sad.
Let's fucking GOOOOOOOOOO!

Jeez, lucky for you all you Apple users. When does the Android version drop?
Too bad there isn't a web version. Anyone know if there will be?
Update: Nevermind. I see Mark Dice has the details here.
This alone makes me consider never wasting my time on that truth social place since I don't use Apple products, never have and never will. I don't like Android either, I prefer doing most things on PC but Apple products typically don't allow as much freedom as Android or PC. I know people that swear that Apple is far superior over Android and maybe it is but I rarely use my phone or tablet anyways and some apps I use I've read won't even install on iphones.
It's just my opinion but this is a bad move, releasing an app available only to one device/platform. More than twice as many people use Android over Iphone, just a simple statistic that can easily be verified online so this decision to push out the app on just iphone for a month is not good for business. I will say maybe they're using iphone only for the 1st month before allowing the bulk of web traffic from Android and PC.
I don't use twitter, gab, or any of that garbage so it won't bother me if I never made an account on Truth Social. People are likely in for some disappointment though over something overly hyped. I hope I'm wrong but we'll see.
Truth social isn't for us. It's for your normie Fudd pals and such who haven't been reached yet.
Everyone I know, friends and family are all against the covid vaccine and none have gotten it but anytime things we'd regularly talk about on here are brought up, it seems people simply have little or no interest. I don't know what it will take to get some people to want to open their eyes to the real world that we live in.
Most people still want to just go to work, go out to eat, go to the bars, go home watch tv or lounge and live life as if nothing major is going on. Sure they complain about inflation and how horrible of a job government is doing but when it comes to the endless crimes of the cabal and governments around the world, it seems people just don't care to know about it.
Maybe it's denial, maybe some people would rather not know what has been happening. There might come a day when that kind of information will be impossible for them to avoid. Some will become filled with rage and anger over it while some will sink into deep denial.
One of the best ways to compare it I think would be regarding religion. Some people believe in god or a god while some people do not.
If god were proven 100% without any doubt to not exist, what would that do to a religious person's mentality?
If god were proven 100% without any doubt to exist and be very real, what would that do to a person's mentality that some would call an atheist?
Typing it out makes it seem like something from the Matrix movies. If one day people were shown without any possible doubt that the world they believed they were living in was not actually what they believed it to be. There would be a problem in all of this though. If the person that believed in god strongly found out god was not real then what purpose would they have left in their lives since religious people do devote a large portion of their lives to what they believe in.
The atheist would more likely feel depressed or betrayed because then they would realize that human life holds no legitimate value if there is an all powerful god then humans would be nothing more than one of many creations.
This would be interesting to debate as to how people would react to learning what has been going on in secret that most people don't know about and most would struggle to even believe. It could be on an extreme level causing people to question their entire life and existence if they knew everything.
People like myself naturally enjoy researching things. I've learned about many of the things talked about on here before the internet even was a thing. Back then decades ago it was a lot harder to find information and quite difficult to verify information to be accurate. Some information never really was verified to be accurate until the created of the internet and several years of information being spread around.
If people are simply shown that this or that person or persons are criminals and raped and killed kids, drank blood, mass murdered, that alone is horrible but this shit could take a very long time to talk about in any bit of detail even among people knowledgeable about it. The problem is that people need to be awakened to as much of it as possible or else they may not reach that point of saying never again and actually meaning it.
I don't know if Truth Social will be a platform to actually wake up the masses to things or if it will just be another waste of time like so many other platforms are. I say waste of time because places like Gab, Bitchute, Odyssee, Rumble, etc are mostly used by people that already have reasonable knowledge of things going on. If a new platform doesn't reach the people needed to be reached then it too would be a waste of time.
I agree. The fact that the information isn’t directly out there already is a problem. Nobody who isn’t “in the know” have no idea or belief that any clue of what you’re talking about is even going on. We need to make this information impossible to avoid
The problem is when I tell anyone I know about any of these things, they just have no interest.
Well that’s why it’s important to show them the facts. We can’t just talk about it.
People don't have enough interest to want to see facts. I could go about things wrong but I'm one that never pushes anything onto anyone. Someone either is interested or they're not. My best friend that I've known over 30 years, he just says they all need to hang but that's about as far as his interest goes.
I'm in the same camp as u/southbeatz (btw, great to see you again!) . And yes, at this point we here are below + outside of the real NEED to have Truth Social. We get the info regardless.
What I'm very excited about the platform is that it'll hopefully provide an impermeable location for all the media and information we share here to be more centrally and (in the eyes of normies) legitimately hosted.l
Diseminating info via catbox, GAW and hundreds of upsidedown looking "Zoltan's Q Powerblog"s makes our jobs exponentially more difficult than it should be.
That said ARCHIVE EVERYTHING OFFLINE still applies, and always will.

Even with DJT himself at the top of Truth Social, its power will remain limited unless something changes regarding the media. It's easy for us to say the media are a bunch of liars and in some cases even criminals but there are a lot of people that still believe the media over anything they'd see on a website.
Parlor, Gab, Rumble, Bitchute, Oddysee all are solid sources but misinformation is way out of control on those platforms as well. MSM is the worst for misinformation but MSM has many decades of being what people have watched. Then there's the reality that news media is not as popular as most believe it to be.
The superbowl which honestly should get 0 viewers but that's just my opinion, it still got a little over 99 million total viewers on broadcast TV alone. Many CNN shows struggle to get half a million viewers while there have been shows on Fox News to get 4 or 5 million viewers, it's still a reminder that most people don't watch the news.
Most people in many ways are completely useless to the human race because they only care about their own little world and do not care what is going on outside of their little precious house they bought. Everyone I know has chosen to not get the vaccine but not because of political reasons but because they simply don't trust a vaccine that hasn't been tested properly.
That's as far as it gets with all of them though. Try talking to them about anything going on that we'd talk about on here and they have zero interest. They don't even care about inflation although they understand inflation. Just because they can afford to pay 2 or 3 times more in gas, they seem to still not care because they have money.
There probably will not be any getting through to those types of people unless the cabal caused them to start losing things like their brand new cars, their houses, their jobs. If they did though, the normies would blame it on government when we all know government is run by mere puppets. I don't see any sign of people ever waking up to the real world.
It's a typical marketing ploy. Here's our new thing but it's only for the Special People. Then the more that people can't have it, the more desirable it appears to be!
Google did the same thing with their social media platform. I genuinely can't even remember what it was called; they have abandoned it now anyway. I do recall though that you needed an invite from an existing member and people were fighting to get one.
Obviously, any such platform needs mass adoption if it is to be any good so I doubt that the "sorry you cannot join our exclusive club" will last very long.
There is the possibility that Trump just wanted his own platform to speak freely on. The idea of creating demand due to limiting availability doesn't always work though. I remember many years ago when I used to play MMO games online, at launch those types of games would be packed with queues but after a month or two the player base would go way down.
It's that whole first impression thing. Without pushing hard as possible, Truth Social will be no more popular than Parlor or Gab.
Hmm maybe they're counting on it being cancelled on apple and that will create a lot of buzz for the platform being offered elsewhere?
NGL. That's some big brain tin foiling. Salute for the skepticism. 😁
My guess is to limit web traffic until it's stable but if that were the case then I'd just say if they can't launch something 100% then why waste time halfway doing something. If Apple tried to censor it, at least apps can on Android can be installed without the Play store app. If it were simply normal and had everything available on the website from the start then apps wouldn't matter.
I still prefer using things through web browsers instead of apps even on my phone. If there's not an actual need or actual big benefit from an app version of something compared to the website version then I always stick to the website version but I also only use my phone or tablet when I'm away from home and even then I rarely use them.
I'm not obsessed with phones so when I'm out and about going places, I do have my phone in my pocket but rarely ever take it out unless I want to take pictures of something or to use it for Amazon music in my car. I prefer Amazon music for my music listening because it's convenient and allows me to listen to everything without having to waste my money supporting artists with old songs I like but don't deserve money.
Apple is more popular than Android esp. with normies, so that theory doesn't hold up.
It's not a theory, it's data that can easily be found online. There are nearly 3 mores more Anroid users than Iphone users.
That's demonstrably and anecdotally false. Look, I'll even provide a source.

I looked up worldwide, you limited yours to just the USA
It downloaded onto my devices but when click to create account it says "Something went wrong. Please try again." Maybe it downloads onto your device, but we have to wait until midnight (2/21) to create an account.
Multiple people are saying the site is crashing with so many of us trying to make accounts.
Can we talk about this logo? Classy, lovely colors. I am totally into this 👍🏻
We have the best logos, don’t we folks?
I’m picking up what you’re putting don! 🤣
Over 126k on the waitlist but I got my real name which as an author is really important to me. Take that, other person that got our name on Twitter and who posted only a couple times.
Woot woot
Just keep trying. I’m number #1,378 on the waiting list.
Not a statement without sauce. https://files.catbox.moe/jdi3qx.png
Lmao, I love the message they wrote there.
I am in
1). Relaunched app
2). This time it asked for my email instead of my cell phone
3). I received an email with confirmation box, click the box
4). Moved forward.
Username is at least 5 letters (at least mine is).
I am now waitlisted as #1,284
I’m 1091
Did TOR vpn download with this for you as well?
Waitlist number 183. Letsss goooo I gotta be up in 3 hrs!! Everything that’s been censored the last 3 yrs by big tech bout to get dropped hard and heavy. Will be closely watching DWAC tomorrow too. Red pill for you! Red pill for you! ERRBODY GETTIN A RED PILL!
So fellow pedes, I was able to finally get in and register my account however it said due to the overwhelming demand we have put you on our waitlist. It does tell you where you are in the queue though. Just a heads up :)
Registration is getting throttled back, they have to scale up more infrastructure to handle the huge maga surge
This thing is going to be unstable for a while. It’s very difficult to engineer a system that can handle millions of requests per second.
Give them time to catch up to the sudden load. I have a feeling they didn’t anticipate this much traffic instantly.
Many people in the comments are saying it's because it doesn't release until midnight! They are just going ahead and letting you download it?
#72000 in queue lol. Love to see how popular it already is
Got to where they send me a verification code but then states it’s incorrect when I enter it.
Enter it a few times, I did and it worked but then glitched somewhere else.
I keep getting stuck at the verification code step. No code comes through
Same
Same
Still cant even complete registration. Email doesn't come through to verify. No, its not in junk. Tried various email addresses on different platforms.
Must be getting slammed - crashing for me as well Saying'"Invalid email address or password and I used the password Truth Social suggested!
I'm at the part where I can create the username and finish creating the process but the error messages (Something went wrong. Please try again) keep popping up. Sometimes, I'll get it to where it says "Please choose a different username to continue. Thanks!"
All you guys on the wait list while my wife and I can't even get the verification email.
I just tried protonmail and I got the verify email in my inbox right away. Now I am at the "Failed to register your account." step lol.
Aaaaand the email token has expired. Oh well maybe it will setting down in a few days.
Me too
Anyone able to create account? I got to final step and it’s not working :( probably so many people at once
Can’t get into it keep getting an error message - can’t even see the site 😔
Add me to that list too! Here we go!!
The Day the World Discovered the TRUTH
Me too! ❤️😇
Is this the type of social media platform that we actually say who we are or can we use a different name? Kinda like what we do here.
In the user name section to sign in, it was my email address. - never got further than that. Hoping we can choose our user names on the site.
Keeps crashing when signing up for an account, hopefully due to immense traffic and Not just that it’s a honey pot.
LAUNCHED ON PRESIDENTS DAY!
Not appearing in the App Store. Where is it frens?
Yep can’t find it in App Store or as a website
Hot damn.. number 6840 in queue
