What kind of platform is MeWe? Like Twitter or Parler? -
seems like it is halfway between Twitter and Facebook.
Side note - I love the fact that Twitter was down 12%, $5B in market cap today. May not last, but the message is clear.Comment

i saw a couple days ago that they've had a 750% increase in signups, and it's probably gone way up since then. They own their own servers so they're having to add them and people are filling them up as fast as they get them up and running. they should have it running smoothly again soon.Comment

Gab is up and running and it’s a little faster now. Still not perfect though!Comment

I'm just hear for the man-crushing.
And to say I've been on Gab pretty hot and heavy lately and haven't seen anything racist, anti-semitic, white supremacist, etc. Just anti SOCIALISM and anti COMMUNISM.
And anti-beans in chili.Comment

Gab is an American alt-tech social networking service known for its far-right and extremist userbase.[3][4][5][6] Widely described as a haven for extremists including neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and the alt-right, it has attracted users and groups who have been banned from other social networks.[7][8][18] Gab claims to promote free speech and individual liberty, though these statements have been criticized as being a shield for its alt-right and extremist ecosystem.[16][19][20] Antisemitism is prominent among the site's content, and the company itself has engaged in antisemitic commentary on Twitter.[22][23][24] Researchers have written that Gab has been "repeatedly linked to radicalization leading to real-world violent events".[25]
Gab launched publicly in May 2017.[26] A microblogging platform, Gab has been described as similar to Twitter.[6][27] The site experienced extensive public scrutiny following the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting in October 2018, after it was found that the sole suspect of the attack, Robert Gregory Bowers, had posted a message on Gab indicating an immediate intent to cause harm before the shooting.[28] Bowers had a history of making extreme, antisemitic postings on the site.[8][24] After the shooting, Gab briefly went offline when it was dropped by its hosting provider and denied service by several payment processors.[29][30][31]
In February 2019, Gab launched Dissenter, a browser extension and website that allows Gab users to make comments on content hosted on any website via an overlay visible only to those logged into Dissenter or using the extension. This allows commentary that bypasses individual site moderation practices.[32][33] In April 2019, Dissenter was removed from the Firefox Add-ons website and the Chrome Web Store for violation of their policies.[34] In July 2019, Gab switched its software infrastructure to a fork of Mastodon, a free and open-source social network platform. Mastodon released a statement in protest, denouncing Gab as trying to "monetize and platform racist content while hiding behind the banner of free speech."[35]Last edited by Pineywoods; 01-12-2021, 01:21 PM.Comment
