真实社交（港台作Truth Social）^[1]，也可譯為真相社交平臺^[2]，是由特朗普媒体与科技集团（TMTG）所推出的社群媒體平臺，於2022年2月21日發行^[3]^[4]^[5]。

背景

在2021年美国国会大厦遭冲击事件之后，美国前总统唐纳德·特朗普的Facebook和Twitter账号皆被封禁，因此他决定创立自己的社群媒体。^[6]

同年5月，特朗普曾创立自己个人的网站平台，但是仅仅维持了一个月就关闭了。^[7]

歷史

2021年10月20日，特朗普媒体与科技集团發表聲明，宣佈該平台將於2021年11月上架iOS進行測試並於2022年正式公開發佈。^[8]^[9]^[10]

2022年2月21日，Truth Social於iOS上架^[11]，曾衝擊App Store免費應用榜單第一名。^[12]^[13]10月12日，Truth Social上架Google play。^[14]

營運

技術

Truth Social是基於開源去中心化分散式微部落格社群網路Mastodon所建立的分支^[15]，支援網頁和應用程序^[16]；然而，Truth Social使用Soapbox^[17]的网站前端开发技術，並非Mastodon原裝。

爭議

在2021年10月21日，軟件自由保護組織懷疑Truth Social沒有開放其源代碼，違反了Mastodon的許可證要求^[18]^[19]^[20]^[21]。

在經過Mastodon的創辦人Rochko和Truth Social交涉後^[22]，Truth Social在11月12日，以ZIP格式於網站公開其源代碼^[23]，在GitHub的源代碼，則為其他人上載^[24]。
