Why Parler over Gab? I look over the Parler TOS and see this nonsense:
Parler may remove any content and terminate your access to the Services at any time and for any reason or no reason, although Parler endeavors to allow all free speech that is lawful and does not infringe the legal rights of others.
…
Although the Parler Guidelines provide guidance to you regarding content that is not appropriate, Parler is free to remove content and terminate your access to the Services even where the Guidelines have been followed.
For me it’s because dan Bongino is behind it (Partial owner now) and hoping his “voice” can help it to thrive
That said, I’m fine with Gab too... anything but twitter, they need to go down hard. Although i agree that we need to keep a presence on twitter until a 2nd option is fully viable
Over the last week or two I've heard of https://slug.com/ as well in fitting into the niche of a twitter alternative that takes a pro-liberty stand. https://www.minds.com/ is another and has been around for longer still.
I dont know yet of any good comparison of the pros and cons for each, and its annoying to have people you follow disperse and fragment out to different competing sites as twitter rots and stagnates, but that's the cost of innovation. And its far better that than being stuck on twitter. It mirrors the experience with thedonald.win in many ways.

Fuck those guys.
So when leftists try to flood it with bots saying racist shit to make the platform look bad, they can delete it. We have mods here too.
