From media reports and individual findings that various people have presented to us, it seems that the new social media platform owned by the former president of the United States, Donald J. Trump, so-called Truth Social, is using Mastodon’s source code with various visual adjustments. The platform has not formally launched yet, but it was made accessible ahead of time. Users were quick to note that the terms of service included a worrying passage, claiming that the site is proprietary property and all source code and software are owned or controlled by them or licensed to them:
Fedibertsoa delakoa, puri-purian dago. Astero instantzia berri bat, software edo protokolo bertsio berri bat kaleratzen da eta zerbitzari desberdinek elkarlana ahalbidetzen dutenez, aukerak anitzak dira. Mundu hori gogoko baduzu edo berataz gehiago ikasi edo eztabaidatu nahi baduzu, harpidetu komunitate xume honetara. Ea denon artean abiadura bizian hazten ari den federatutako unibertsoa hobexeago ulertzea lortzen dugun!
