tl;dr: some leftoid bullied Truth Social into releasing their source code as per the AGPL which requires derivative source to be published, naturally he's very proud of himself
He also implies the code is shit and people should look for vulnerabilities (to report them responsibly, I'm sure)

Could have done without all the left-wing whining.
The dispersal from left-leaning social media sites wasn't about needing a place to tell lies, moderation on them was ideologically driven and biased, much like the author of this piece.
Nobody likes to be censored, the left has just been doing the censoring for so long they've forgotten how it feels.
This comment and any others critiquing the author or supporting Truth Social will be flagged, effectively deleting them for anyone who doesn't toggle the flag on in settings. What a great site this is. Actually worse than reddit in this regard.

The tone of this article reads like the author expected this company to be evil incarnate, because they're Republican, and then they just...aren't.
Seems like there is some cognitive distortion going on where people are being vilified, and then that ends up not matching reality.

What is it with people and the most r-slurred interpretations of free speech?

If you understood free speech you'd probably be in favor of it, so to be against it more or less requires not understanding it

you say you program in rust, but it seems you haven't actually released any software, curious?
