I only got as far as the phone number request, having that requirement was a very bad business choice.

I just get a not so great feeling about Parler, it was started with huge seed money and it reminds me of the dotcom days (I'm old) where tech companies would throw around investor money and make many wrong steps.

They saw what happened to Gab, yet not only did they not want their own infrastructure, they went with a woke company like Amazon that is also super expensive.
