I am on gab now
gab is banned from both app stores and doesn't let you use gmail to authenticate, so takes a little more effort
unable to post pics or gifs bc the server can't handle them rn, but I successfully published my first gab
UI is more refined than parler, however everything is slow af like being on the darknet
I'm operating under a fresh identity to avoid suspicion 🕵️
best thing I found on parler
sadly posted by a qanon loser
this is legit based, shame there isn't more on this wavelength
parler recap:
- some creative propaganda
- an embarrassing amount of nostalgia for WWII
- a few slightly interesting pagans
- no signs of zoomer energy or topwit ingenuity
- no great esoterica-inclined minds found
their search and tweet retrieval functions are already hiccupping
disappointing for twitter to lose a competitor, but character-wise, parler going down doesn't seem to be a big loss imo
also now there's apparently a running clock until parler goes down so it's like LIMITED TIME, HIGH STAKES now
this is how I get my kicks 👻
the subset of gab/parler users who I'd actually be interested in knowing is quite small (the top 2% in openness), but that's what makes the hunt to find them exciting 😄
yeah this is a good example of how I rationalize pursuing inprobable endeavors
I'm mostly just curious abt freethinkers who've joined these alternative platforms and exist outside the maga fox news boomer bubble
that and they're prime ground for infiltration / trolling 🦧
appears AWS is pulling the plug on parler tonight
consequently there's a massive rush to gab, which is throwing a server overloaded error 🙃
@WomanCorn I got a 600 MB zip file with everything on the left plus an HTML file that links to all my tweets, replies, and RTs
@protoneutype @urshanabi Okay looks like you can send a DM on tusky by
1) Starting a regular toot
2) Selecting the DM option under the globe icon while typing the toot
3) Tagging whoever you want to send the DM to
4) Send toot
tbh no pfps or pics is it's own vibe
to tell ppl apart you have to scrutinize their words more carefully
paying closer attention to what others say instead of judging them based on their image 👍
