Truth Social is a social media platform founded by former U.S. President Donald Trump. The platform was officially launched in February 2022, aiming to provide a space for free speech and alternative perspectives, in contrast to what Trump and his supporters describe as censorship on mainstream platforms like Twitter and Facebook. Truth Social is part of the Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), which focuses on media and technology development. The platform is available on both web browsers and mobile apps, though its early rollout encountered technical issues and a long waiting list of users eager to sign up.

Truth Social allows users to create accounts, follow other users, and post updates, similar to other popular social media platforms. Users can share text, images, and links, as well as interact with others through likes and comments. Unlike some mainstream platforms, Truth Social has positioned itself as a space where users are less likely to face bans or restrictions for controversial viewpoints. Despite this positioning, the platform enforces its own guidelines and terms of service, which aim to prevent illegal activity and content that violates community standards.

Truth Social gained significant attention due to the high-profile involvement of Donald Trump and his desire to bypass perceived censorship. The platform has seen notable support from conservative voices in the U.S., with many Trump supporters adopting it as their primary social media outlet.

In terms of its design and user interface, Truth Social shares several features with Twitter, including a similar timeline layout. As the platform continues to grow, its future success largely depends on the ability to retain a large, active user base while competing with established platforms.
