Truth Social’s average number of daily active US users on iOS and Android dropped by 19% year-over-year in April to about 113,000, according to Similarweb data shared exclusively with CNN.

Former President Donald Trump hit the jackpot this spring when his social media company finally went public.

Even though Trump Media & Technology Group DJT generates very little revenue, investors are assigning an eye-popping valuation north of $9 billion to the company. Trump’s dominant stake in Trump Media is now valued at nearly $6 billion.

Yet new data shows its main product — the conservative-friendly social network Truth Social — remains a very tiny player in its industry, and it’s getting even smaller.

Truth Social’s average number of daily active US users on iOS and Android dropped by 19% year over year in April to about 113,000, according to data shared exclusively with CNN from Similarweb, a data intelligence company.

    While that’s true, the company’s revenue was also shit. So they have no users and are bringing in little money. And also somehow have huge expenditures.

      I would imagine that having lawsuits between people at the top of the company trying to get the ability to cash out sooner is not very encouraging either.

      And the SEC finding that their auditing company was involved in large-scale accounting fraud probably doesn’t help.

      EDIT: Apparently this is merely their latest accounting company. Their first one resigned, and they just kicked the second out to start using the third one that just got banned for conducting bogus audits on other companies.
