Former President Donald Trump has officially launched his brand new social media app, TRUTH Social, Monday, and it’s topped the download charts and created a huge waiting list.
As of Tuesday morning, 1.5 billion people have taken a look at the app in the iPhone app store, with almost 400,000 people getting notices they were placed on a waitlist upon attempting to sign up.
“Due to massive demand, we have placed you on our waitlist,” TRUTH Social’s notification went on to say. “We love you, and you’re not just another number to us.”
The new app sits atop Apple’s download chart with 170,000 downloads in its first day, according to AppTopia, a site that tracks app ecology.
TRUTH Social is currently only available on Apple devices.
The Day One downloads are staggering in comparison to other conservative platforms. Rumble has averaged 10,600 downloads per day on Apple over the last month. Gettr grabbed 12,050 while Parler netted around 1,500 downloads per day, according to AppTopia data.
You know, this is off to a really good start. Many social media platforms that already exist have created the need for these new sites with their constant attempts to censor folks who share a different set of views on the issues than the ones that are accepted by progressives.
Who knows? In a few years, TRUTH Social could be the most used platform in the world.
