GAB, here's a pro tip: Have enough server capacity so you can take all of Twitter and Parler's users when Twitter becomes unbearable and Parler gets shut down.

Just saying, they should have been prepared for this.

That's not how servers work. You add some, test if it all works, and repeat. If you immediately try to upscale your server by 800% and anything is wrong with a single part, you have no idea what part it is.

Who said anything about immediate. Everyone knew Twitter was going to ban Trump eventually and they should have prepared.

Ah yes, put in tens of thousands of dollars and increasing your daily running costs by a ton, just because there's a miniscule chance you might grow. Very realistic.

Can we expect you to foot the bill?
