Donald Trump’s social network sinks into oblivion

Truth Social, the social media platform of former US President Donald Trump, has recorded a 93% drop in downloads since its launch in late February.

Truth Social had an impressive opening with millions of downloads on the App Store at the time of launch. For a time, Mr. Trump’s social network was at the top of the free apps chart on the App Store. However, only a short time later, this “Twitter for Right” platform gradually became blurred in the hearts of users.

According to analytics website Sensor Tower, only 60,000 new users sign up each week, down significantly from 870,000 subscribers on launch week.

This is understandable when users have lost patience with the platform in the absence of necessary innovations. Up to now, Truth Social has not had an official version for Android users.

Even former President Donald Trump, the founder of Truth Social, seems to “put his children on the market” when there has not been any significant interaction since the first posting of content in mid-February (before the platform was released). launch).

Once expected to become the most democratic social network, Truth Social hopes to become a counterweight to Twitter, where Mr. Trump was “banned” after scandals during the Capitol riots.

However, Truth Social is not really “democratic” as the introduction. The platform used to collect significant information from users to learn about their opinions and behaviour. Truth Social even disables users who are believed to post inappropriate information.

After more than a month since its launch, it seems that Mr. Trump’s social network has stopped at the level of “short-term phenomenon”. Obviously, in order to develop or at least maintain the platform, Truth Social must have certain breakthroughs, when Facebook and Twitter have been “ingrained” into the subconscious of global users.
