  • The truthier something claims to be, the less it is.

    When I was out for a walk the other month, I saw a newspaper in a waterproof bag, propped up at the side of the path by a hedge. It was called The Light, and boldly claimed to be "the uncensored truth". Would you believe it, it turned out to be full of Covid conspiracy nonsense and anti-semitism.

    In my day we just found discarded grotty porn in hedges, now it's right wing nutbaggery. I fear for our youth. We need to distribute more copies of Reader's Wives and Razzle across the flora and fauna of Britain.

  • Truth Social is built with Mastodon fun fact lmao

    • Yep, and I'm pretty sure they almost got sued over not disclosing it too

      • If it's based in Mastodon then it's he wrong to say it's the exact opposite of Mastodon, no?

        That's like saying a Lemmy app is the opposite of another Lemmy app, if one app defaulted to Lemmygrad and the other to Exploding Heads.

      • Yup, they didn't comply with the license Mastodon uses (Affero General Public License) by not publishing the source code and making it accessible via something like a button and they got a legal notice to either add one or get sued
