Actual dislikes are MUCH higher. I just checked and ALL of my dislikes have been undone and I can't re-unlike. FRAUD

Define "app"... If you are looking for something on the duoppoly of Apple and Goolag's app stores then don't count on it.

Torba is making a GAB brand privacy smart-phone and his own app store though... ;)

Also, GAB is federated so almost any compatible app will work I think.

Duck Duck Go is an anonymity and search aggregate, it searches google, bing, and a number of other crawlers / indexers without storing or sharing your search history. That is it's purpose. Of course it's going to return "lefty" stuff in the news feed but I don't think it's curated as such. Even 4conservative returns fakenews on the "all news" tab.

4Conservative is part of a network of filtered search results but it certainty isn't a conservative organization.

I do agree it would be nice to filter out specific returns but that is perhaps best done in a browser extension, like de-mainstream for Youtube.

Official reason was out of money yes.

VOAT was maintained by one guy (PutItOut) for the last few years and almost shut it down over cloudflare [and application hosting] costs a couple of years ago. Community did a fund drive [and re-wrote the code to reduce costs] which paid the bills for a while, then an "angel investor" first supported then pulled support for the site. PutItOut had been footing all bills since ~March and shut it down Christmas day.

Theories abound surrounding the "real" reasons but it probably boiled down to a combination of things but the cause was the angel investor pulling out. What began as a project of passion became a PITA.

FYI: searchvoat.co exists for nostalgic purposes

Yes, that is the official story from Crowder / Glen Beck, but if we've learned anything in the last 5 years isn't it that these media types just say whatever sells clicks?

The "non-official" story is that Sven was on a work visa that Crowder pulled after stiffing Sven 50k$

Frankly, Crowder should have quit over being bought out by never Trump Cheetos face Glen Beck IMHO.

The only confirmation was Owen Benjamin live-streamed about it and both Sven and Jared replied "ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ" (ascii emoji bear, which is apparently a thing in Owen chats). Owen explained what happened and that they were both under NDA's but Owen refused to sign one.

Then Crowder sold out to Glen Beck. [yuck]

Making an unsubstantiated accusation is the epitome of "concern trolling" if not the actual definition. This was in the context of, now deleted, comments claiming the GAB TOS said they would "rat you out at the drop of a hat" or something similar.

Nice straw man with the "buzzwords will be your undoing" though. Not falling back on anything. The definitions of things is my primary weapon. Fall back is semantics, always a useful sidearm in the battle of rhetoric.

You also had to send a photo copy of your ID which "hackers" now claim to have a copy of.

Early? It's been around longer than Parler... Sounds like concern trolling to me.

Fakeheadline refuted by article. Epik says they have not had any communication with Parler re: "Epik put out a statement on Monday claiming it had no discussion of providing future services to Parler."

Sauce or GTFO with that Fakenews ... "Should be hung for treason" is not "threatening the VP". It's merely stating an opinion that VP is a traitor and traitors should be hung. Nothing controversial about that according to blue check twitter.

Citation needed.

Parler was a 2-bit player until Bongino and Conservative INC. / Turning Point USA tried to bribe Torba into banning "hate speech" on GAB. When Torba refused Bongino bought Parler which became Bongino and Conservative INC.'s personal blog with a comments section.

Facts: Torba did ban porn because it was exclusively used for harassment against conservatives. Trying to claim no porn is "speech censorship" is top tier neck-beard crap.

Weeve and Little were kicked off because that's their entire purpose in life, to try and get free speech platforms shut down, so they constantly broke the TOS. Both Weeve and Little were kicked off for DOX'ing and harassment.

It says "For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned.", exactly as described. You are correct though, it is being misinterpreted. The CDC clearly states "only cause mentioned" meaning there were likely comorbidities in those cases as well, they just weren't listed, and the real deaths caused solely by COVID is 0% IMHO.
