Donald Trump's aide launches new social media platform called GETTR 

Jason Miller, an aide to former US President Donald Trump recently launched a new platform called GETTR. Miller describes the platform as a "non-bias social network", pitching it as an alternative to the Big Tech sites.

GETTR is available on both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store to download for free and can also be accessed through a browser. It is rated as 'M' for mature on the app store, which means the recommended age is 17 years and up. The interface looks a lot like Twitter, with GETTR borrowing several aspects of the microblogging site.

Miller had left his position as Trump's spokesman to launch GETTR. In its mission statement, GETTR said that it aimed to "promote common sense, defend free speech, challenge social media monopolies, and create a true marketplace of ideas."

Trump has all but been cast out of the public eye when Facebook and Twitter removed the former president from their platforms for inciting the January 6 riots at the Capitol. While Trump's ban on Twitter is permanent, Facebook may lift its ban on the former President in 2023.
