    Hell its even known to use mastodon code illegally.

    Truth Social’s code is open source. It uses elements of Mastodon and Soapbox.

      The only reason they released the source code is because people dug around the pre-release versions of the site and found it was based on Mastodon, while TS claimed they owned all copyrights to the software. They were in breach of Mastodon’s license.

      They would have gotten away with it if this had never came to light.
