        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

        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.

          It’s essentially forked mastodon. There’s no federation with it. It’s just using the core functionality. Plus Mastodon’s development had a goal and vision. TruthSocial is somewhat antithetical to it.
