Truth Social was conceived for conservatives as a Trump-approved alternative to Twitter, free of censorship & "cancel culture," but with the added "benefit" of Donald Trump actively participating on the platform. However, since its launch on 20 February, the platform has been derided by tech critics & a source of frustration for conservatives who were placed on long waitlists before they were allowed access. But, very recently the company has suffered a shakeup that could impact further development & delays of the app altogether.
