Encyclopedic overview
Truth Social is an American alt-tech social media platform owned by Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), an American company majority-owned by US president Donald Trump. It has been called a "Twitter clone" that competes with Parler, Gab, Bluesky and Mastodon in trying to provide an alternative to Twitter and Facebook.
The service was launched in February 2022, created in response to Trump's bans from major social networks after the January 6 Capitol attack. It is a self-styled "free-speech" alternative to mainstream platforms, catering primarily to a conservative and pro-Trump user base. Since mid-2022, it has faced financial and regulatory issues. It was unavailable on Google Play because of policies prohibiting content with physical threats and incitement to violence, but approved in October 2022 after agreeing to enforce policies against incitement.
