Donald Trump's Truth Social App Is Failing Fantastically, Report Says

Source: Huffpost

Donald Trump’s Truth Social app has plummeted in sign-ups and traffic since its technically challenged launch last month, The Wrap reported Tuesday.

The former president’s social media network for MAGA disciples has sunk to about 60,000 new users a week.

“This is down 93% from its launch week, when it saw 872,000 installs during the week of Feb. 21,” Stephanie Chan of the analytics site Sensor Tower told The Wrap. “We estimate that Truth Social has so far reached approximately 1.2 million installs since its launch.”

Truthsocial.com reportedly has fallen to 1.9 million weekly visits from a high of 6 million in the debut week for the Twitter-like platform, according to Similarweb stats cited by the news website.

because I was hoping Trumpy types would go there and get off of other media. They constantly complain about being censored when apparently no one is viewing their nonsense anyway.

with the same old crap? All the energy and excitement seems to be fizzling out. In the end, Trump is really a very boring person who only has one routine.

The Apple store download site for Truth Social shows five screen shots.

Please note screen shot #2 -- "Custom Profile"... (created before the apps launch on February 21, 2022)

"Mr Bob Jones" has a website: joneworks.studio

Here's a link: [ link:http://joneworks.studio|]

The link redirects to a Minneapolis Star Tribune article: "Trump: America's Sorest Loser"

Priceless...


[I posted about this shortly after Truth Social's launch... Guess I'm not the only one who noticed the faux pas...)

Delighted to discover today that the error remains in the Apple store for all the world to see...

It's pulling in a rather dismal 1.8% of the population. The problem is that it's something people have to look for, unlike Tiwtter and Fakebook, which are preloaded onto most devices.

That's why getting kicked off major platforms was such a huge deal. I hope they keep him off.
