i'm very disappointed... I was not able to create an account on truth social for so many months since it was "released", and now I find that I can. And after a split second of excitement, I find that it requires my phone number?

What, do they wanna sell it to advertisers or something? Are they running some sort of scam operation? Why do they want my phone number? Is this a joke? If I enter my phone number, are they gonna require my proof of vaccination and central bank digital ID next?

I am not seeing how perpetuating this kind of disrespectful and privacy-breaching internet practice is supposed to make America great again...
