Gettr (stylized GETTR) is an alt-tech social media platform and microblogging site targeting American conservatives.[7][8] It was founded by Jason Miller, a former Donald Trump aide, and was officially launched on July 4, 2021.[9][10][11][12] Its user interface and feature set have been described as very similar to those of Twitter.[13][14]

The platform experienced issues shortly after launch, including internet trolls posting content that violated the terms of service, users flooding it with pornography,[15] and the brief hacking of some high-profile accounts.[16][17][18] Journalists have observed the prevalence of extreme content on the platform, including racism, antisemitism, and terrorist propaganda.[19][20][21]

By November 2021, Gettr said it had almost 3 million total users and almost 400,000 daily average users.[22] As of February 2022, the company said that its number of users had increased to 4.5 million.[23] According to market intelligence company Sensor Tower, as of February 2022 there have been 6.5 million global downloads of the Gettr app from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.[23]
