Well, my theory is that, although there are technical issues involved, the underlying problem is incompetence. The people in charge don't know how to hire the right people to manage the project. So the incompetent managers don't know how to hire capable technical people (and there is a shortage of good technical workers right now). The incompetent technical people don't know how to solve the technical issues. They probably rely on some sort of cronyism to hand out jobs. I mean the CEO is Devin Nunes. What the hell does he know about how to run a high-tech startup? Nothing!

I don't think we need to look any deeper than that.
:yeahthat: especially the highlighted

If they were wise they would hire the developers of Mastodon and turn them loose on Truth. But they're dopes. And so they do dopey things, like try to not even acknowledge they forked a well known open source project until they are forced to.

CEO of Trump Media Devin Nunes assures Truth Social users not to worry, because big changes are coming soon to fix all the issues with the platform “over the next few weeks.”

Looks like Truth Social needs some big, beautiful healthcare.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

remember report in https://thefogbow.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 583#p95583
Spurred by the former president’s frustration, Nunes has worked to install his own people atop the troubled company, leading to the resignations of its chiefs of technology, product development and legal affairs, according to the people familiar with the turmoil. The departures were first reported by Reuters and Politico.

The management was hired because they do talking points and nothing more. That is all TFO wants. Nunes was hired because he is good at telling TFO what he wants to hear and Nunes is rarely concerned about the actual facts (like they don't have the budget and staffing to accomplish the task). So, senior managers tell Nunes what he wants to hear and Nunes tells Trump.

"This is budget and staffing we need to build this platform" is not a talking point. It's boring and Nunes/Trump don't want to hear it.

How many fascist-leaning knockoffs of Twitter are there? Parler, Gab, Telegram, FrankSpeech, TruthSocial? I've forgotten a few. How many do they need?

Truth sucks. I don't know if I'm doing it wrong or the algorithm just sucks, but I keep getting served the same dreadful posts that I'm just not interested in mostly. And I have a billion people following me, I keep getting alerts about new people following me. I've never posted anything. I've never liked anything. I've never "re-truthed" anything. Where are these people coming from?

I rate it Texas. (one star)

Truth Social seems to be stopping itself without any outside help...

"It's a scam." MAGA pastor/Trump cultist Shane Vaughn (aka "Professor Toto") claims that Twitter orchestrated its sale to Elon Musk just to "stop Truth Social."

BTW, yesterday evening about 7 miles from Merde Lardo we had a DOUBLE rainbow.

So Trump clearly negotiated it down.
