You do have an interesting point on the political aspect, and I respect you for voicing it to the opposition even though I personally really hate Trump as a person and a public figure. I personally also think that if the Trumpers have their own dedicated space, it would be a lot easier to ignore them and not have them bother people who don't want to see that kind of content.

As a side note though, Trump is absolutely not following the license. Their TOS says outright that they own all the code, which they don't.

Its terms also say that “all source code” of Truth Social is proprietary. That might run afoul of Mastodon’s own license.

“The main thing is that Mastodon is free software, released under the AGPLv3 license, so anyone can use it—provided they comply with the license. The main part of the license is making the source code and any modifications to it available to the public,” Rochko told Motherboard. With Truth Social saying that its code is proprietary “that would be a problem, as that would indicate a license violation,” Rochko added.

I think this is probably the biggest issue people in the open source community have with this.
