No, I think it would be great if it federated. More people would come into contact with the idea of federation. I doubt most people using truth social are aware it’s Mastodon. I certainly didn’t know.
Comment on Mastodon has a new plan to make money: Hosting and support services for the open social web

Federation is a 2 way street! No federation means his users all get to live out their days in a big circlejerk.

it’s not like being exposed to other people’s content would change them in any way

Why not? All the Fox and Facebook misinformation radicalized them once. Why couldn’t they change again?

Because they will create their own circlejerk in the fediverse too and people will leave them alone to do it. Instances would likely defederate from a truth social instance if it were federated. They are also in the habit of banning anyone who speaks against their side so it wouldn’t do much good to try.

Fools want the lies to be true. I do think its important to still expose people to facts and such though, but the fact the misinformation central quaritined themselves has made my expericence of the fediverse better
