I personally hate the name. In my research, any companies with "truth," "trust," etc. in their name are invariably named as such because they are the opposite of their name. For example, the Trusted News Initiative was created specifically to act in an untrustworthy manner.
The number of such examples is legend.
Truth Social is the worst name ever, but it is what it is. Hopefully it shows itself to be the exception that proves the rule.
To tweet became a household verb due to the platform's popularity. TS tries too hard to force the same effect with the word "truth". Unfortunately this is not how things work, it's not going to become a thing just because they want to.
A tongue twister with no handy verb..."Did you read what Trump truthed last night" sounds affected and dippy.
Naturally there was decent support for the Trumpet name right from the beginning. Elon is doing a little gamesmanship here, but he's late to the party.
he's not wrong
Truth is a hard name to brand effectively and it only exists because twitter turned to hard fascist censorship
If liberals let go of the "if you don't like it make your own", truth wouldn't need to exist.

Like naming a used car business "Integrity Auto Sales"
or Randy's Tegridy Farms.
Wow, that's actually really cringe.
I agree with Elon that Trumpet is better. Could even call them toots instead of truths. Lol!
agreed , just make it simple 'Share''

Good point. Cause free speech also includes plenty of lies
Gab is genius branding
Yeah Truth Social as a brand name is unfortunate.
The words should flow
The TH - S - SH combo is a disaster

I thought maybe it would devolve into "True Social," since that is at least a little easier to say.
But "Trumpet" is actually the ideal name for it.
