Team Trump quietly launches new social media platform

Quote:
Former President Donald Trump's team quietly launched a new social media platform on Thursday, billing it as an alternative to Big Tech sites.

The platform, called GETTR, advertised its mission statement as "fighting cancel culture, promoting common sense, defending free speech, challenging social media monopolies, and creating a true marketplace of ideas."

Trump's former spokesman, Jason Miller, is leading the platform, he confirmed via text. A person familiar described the site as similar to Twitter.

Trump's involvement with the project is unclear as is whether or not he will set up an account on GETTR and use it, though his proximity to Miller suggests that this may be the latest attempt to get him back in the churn of social media.

Not launched yet. July 4th at 10am EDT.

AND you get 777 characters per post! Instead of 280. So it HAS to be better than Twitter, right?

ETA: I guess you can also import your tweets from the Twit.

ormer Trump senior adviser Jason Miller is launching a new social media platform on July 4 to declare "independence" from Big Tech, billing it as a "cancel-free zone" focused on free speech, with "superior technology" that he says will "be the envy" of Silicon Valley.

The platform is called "GETTR," which Miller, the CEO of the company, told Fox News evolved from the idea of "getting together."

"Let's get together, we're talking about a sense of community," Miller told Fox News in an exclusive interview Thursday. "We think it will ultimately be a global platformnot just conservatives in the U.S."
He added: "We want people from all political stripes to join the platform."

GETTR is officially launching on Sunday, July 4 at 10:00 a.m. ET, but the platform is already in the App Stores.

"This ties in with Independence Day," Miller said. "Independent from social media monopolies, independent from cancel culture; embracing free speechour launch on Sunday is very much intentional."
"We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution."

Looks like Twitter may become a relic of the past.


If you're hotlinking to Twitter, they'll both go down at the same time.

If it was Stephen Miller, and not Jason Miller, it might have a chance.

I was just able to get the email and activate the account. It wouldn't send the email before.

Any word on the actions taken to close the weaknesses that allowed the hacks?
Among the latter, under pretence of governing they have divided their nations into two classes, wolves and sheep.”
