Because techie people with the skills and capital are educated, and they were brainwashed in college by the Leftists in the social sciences and humanities who control the campus culture and pressure them to conform to fit in and obtain approval which young people so desperately desire...
Want to really have your mind blown? Government owns the DNS root and regulates ISPs too. Figured out a way to circumvent the normal thought police tactics? Better hope the government doesn't declare your website illegal and deregister / ip ban you.
We are stupid. I am to blame as well. Parler uses Amazon Web Services. It would have been a no brainer to avoid that from the start. I dont know if its because there are no technology companies that understand the externalities. Parler may have just hired an H1-B firm for all I know, that only applies what they are familiar with.
That should be it then, Gab should be the do all end all until we can get some reliability. Leftists have been creating Nazi groups there to smear them when the time is right. Stupid normies be like.... but thats a Nazi platform.
It's too big of a monopoly. Internet providers hold even more power than social media. Conservatives could start a server farm, host thousands of sites, and Spectrum, AT&T, etc would eventually cut their internet. They own the internet infrastructure. Independent web hosts piggyback on the fiber grid. Big Tech owns the cable lines and services.
TDW could have a dedicated server housed with a conservative owned server farm. Once TDW is traced back to that provider, they'd likely receive a threat to shut down the server or lose access to their internet grid. They would give in because without internet, their server farm would be useless.
Big tech has a monopoly on everything the internet is used for. Up until like 2018, startup hosting companies could compete. You could setup a server and provide nearly unlimited email and hosting accounts. IP's have "reputation" associated with them. You could build up the reputation of an IP used for your mail server by sending "quality" emails and Gmail/Yahoo/Outlook wouldn't auto flag as spam. BUT either way, emails would at least still send.. even if they were flagged as spam.
Now big tech has a shared database of whitelisted IP addresses. They completely reject emails from "unknown" IP's, unless the person/company wanting to receive the email adds it to their own whitelist. Basically if you want a custom email address now, you have to use a big tech provider or you won't be able to send emails to anybody that uses big tech email accounts. It crushes any small webhost and forces them to not own their own servers, and instead become a middleman.. Selling hosting/email services from a server that is actually owned by big tech.

And because we haven’t been paying attention and have allowed them to do this bs fir so long. You think they are gonna give their power up?
Because Big Tech is owned by China.
^this is the real answer.
I think the Samsung Galaxy Store also not carrying, unless I misspelled the name of the app.

Parlor didn’t start as a conservative platform. It still doesn’t market itself that way - only as a free speech / no spying on you platform.
Gab hosts themselves

Because when you don't obey The Party your servers get confiscated.
Go to GAB, they prepared for such a time as this time.
