Mastodon said it sent a formal letter to Truth Social’s chief legal officer asking that it share the source code, and Truth Social has since added an “Open Source” section to its website.
The launch is relied upon to be the first of three phases in TMTG’s development. The second would be a subscription video-on-demand service called TMTG+ with entertainment, news, and podcasts, as indicated by the organization website. A November investor presentation demonstrated that TMTG likewise wants to launch a podcast network.
