I signed up for Gab, but it has to be the slowest website ever.

Yeah, they're getting DDOSed by new users!

Been on GAB for a long time. I don't even do social media, but how Gab was treated opened my eyes to a lot of things and I've supported them since.

They aren’t using Amazon, Google, or Azure. The good news is that they are adding servers. Parler is a goner on Monday.

Probably because of the influx of new users, so they aren’t prepared but will be.

They run their own data center and they're upgrading the servers to support more new users. Please, be a premium gab user if you can. They are 100% supported by their users (no ads or big corps behind).

I wonder why though, it's like this site, staunchly refuses to run conservative friendly ads or take donations, but seems like it could really use them. I understand why they wouldn't want to do either, but maybe if someone is able or knows how they accept bitcoin donations? Something?
