Sorry, it’s just me but I’ve always hated Twitter - I have two accounts; one personal and one with my GAW name - and I don’t use either of them. I just find the format a boring time suck. Much like Facebook and Instagram. And now here is Truth Social and I absolutely hate it’s functionality. I can’t upload photos unless they are stored in iCloud first!?! Wtf is that requirement, I can’t just pull them from my “Photos” app on my device? I don’t use iCloud for anything and I’m not about to start just so I can post memes to Truth. Truth won’t even allow me to upload an account thumbnail or a banner photo without the same iCloud bullshit requirement.
Meh, all this shit is overrated. This ”meteoric” user adoption of Truth Social feels fake, phoney and false. I don’t know a single family member or friend that has an account on Truth... but the same friends and family all actively use Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. I don’t doubt for a second that people are adopting Truth, I just don’t think it’s going to be as big as we hope it will be.
I’ll be the pessimist here and call it like it is, Truth Social won’t result in Twitter’s downfall and nor will it be “the next big thing.”
Don’t get me wrong, I like places like GAW but Social Media itself is a cancer... people need to get out more and engage in real life, real interactions.
FWIW, I don't do "cloud" anything either and don't plan on it. With the exception of GAW, I don't spend much time on any "social media." Fakebook has apparently suspended me forever, just got my twatter account back a week or so ago.
