Newsweek/BY ADAM STATEN

Former President Donald Trump's social media app Truth Social may have been out only a week but some are already "losing interest."

The self-described "'Big Tent' social media platform that encourages an open, free, and honest global conversation" initially encountered issues such as crashes, copyright infringement accusations and long waitlists with its soft launch. However, it appears that issues with the app remain and have some users questioning the app.

One user mentioned that while they weren't ready to throw in the towel, their interest is waning. "I'm losing interest in Truth – they never let anyone new in, so there's not many people there." They continued, "I'm not giving up on them – just losing interest for now."

The Twitter account for Chicks on the Right, a conservative website and podcast, responded with a similar message. "We are in, I get notifications of new followers from time to time, but without a desktop version and no telling when it'll be more functional and robust? Same."

gets off of trolling people in social media. They aren't going to give a shit about an app where everyone agrees with them.

7. Forums

The thing with forums is that you have to have a lot of people – – as in thousands and thousands – – before they can be very interesting. It takes a lot of time to develop that many people and far more to develop a forum with interesting, provocative posts.

This is just way beyond trump’s abilities. Also, the people attracted to Trumpism are not very interesting anyway.
