From a structure/software standpoint, Truth is far, far better than Twitter. The Twitter platform looks like something from the 1990s. But the key to Twitter is the massive user base-Truth has a handful of users. A little actual work on the Twitter interface, firing some of the censors and doing away with the bias and bigotry of the "banners" would make it a viable platform.

Apparently, Musk just fired Vijaya Gadde, Twitter head of legal policy, trust & safety, who made the decision to permanently suspend President Trump.

The plot thickens.

Elon Musk Buys Twitter, Fires CEO and CFO
With takeover deal completed, Chief Executive Parag Agrawal and Chief Financial Officer Ned Segal, among others, are fired


He didn’t waste any time.

[i] Mr. Musk fired Chief Executive Parag Agrawal and Chief Financial Officer Ned Segal after the deal closed, the people said. Spokespeople for Twitter didn’t comment.

It wasn’t immediately clear who would step into those top positions. CNBC previously reported the firings.

Mr. Musk completed the deal a day before a court-imposed deadline to complete his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter or face the prospect of a Delaware trial over the deal’s future.[/i


Thank You Mr Musk.

Thank You Mr Musk.

They wanted to be 'fired'. If those execs wanted to stay on they would have negotiated that in the deal.

Getting rid of the dirt.

The company's CEO and CFO were terminated and escorted out of headquarters.

Musk terminated Twitter Chief Executive Parag Agrawal, Chief Financial Officer Ned Segal and legal affairs and policy chief Vijaya Gadde, according to people familiar with the matter. He had accused them of misleading him and Twitter investors over the number of fake accounts on the social media platform.

There's some vlogs who vlogged about Musk and Twitter who might be worth to check an eye.

I hope he has hired a slew of lawyers. Complete free speech will have consequences. I foresee a lot of defamation suits.
