It is extremely important that we work to educate people on alternatives to many sites that have become compromised. This doesn't necessarily mean a max exodus from all platforms, but people really need to know where to go. I've seen some recommendations, I saw an image with a partial list, but I'd really love to see some higher profile stuff that really provides good information. It might exist, but I haven't seen it widely promoted. This isn't just about going to Parler, we've seen Twitter, Facebook, Drudge Report, and even Fox News become compromised. Directing people towards where they can get uncensored and untainted information is important.

This isn't just about compiling an easy to access list, the additional step would be small guides on how to use the respective websites. For instance my wife joined Parler and complained there wasn't much to do. If you're kind of a novice, knowing who to follow and how to get going is daunting. The same can be said for WeMe which I have to confess I'm not really sure what the heck to do there myself. It would be great if someone (assuming it doesn't already exist) made a website with short guides for each site or something.

Anyway here's what I came up with off the top of my head and I welcome any input. I didn't add sites like 4chan because that takes a certain type of person to be able to navigate. I certainly wouldn't want to send grandmoms there or something.

Parler - Twitter Alternative

Donald.Win - Reddit Alternative (There is a Win network)

OAN / Newsmax - News Alternatives (Pluto carries Newsmax and also carried America's Voice which has Bannon's War Room).

Gab and MeWe - Facebook Alternatives

Rumble and Bitchute - YouTube Alternatives

Citizen Free Press - Aggregator (Drudge Report Alternative)

Thanks! This is great and exactly the sort of thing I had in mind.

The more we can distribute stuff like this the better.
