I'm torn and slightly confused. On one hand, good on them, I do enjoy some shitposting. On the other, the founder of NAFO is a nazi.

Edit: Also I went to Truth Social and thought it was weird that I couldn't reject their cookies so I clicked in the link at the bottom for GDPR and it gave me a 404 lol.

So what's their beef with Truth[sic] Social, then?

Eugh I tried signing up, but they want a phone number for txt verification, and block the free online numbers to get around that.

[–] Goronmon@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I've never had those free text numbers work for me when used this way. For any services.

I mean, they do have a bit of a point to have stronger defenses against alt accounts
