GAB is positioning itself to survive the free speech restrictions that are enveloping the social media networks around the world right now. Torba takes a lot of heat for trying to stay ahead of the game.
Gab is working much better today than it was over the weekend.
Torba posted today that you need to clear your cookies and clear your cache. He said it's been solving a lot of the issues people are having just like you're mentioning. 👍
Years ago when I signed up for a gab account... within like an hour - not reaching out to ANYONE - I got bombarded with invites to nazi, clan rally, supremacist groups... and I was like wtf?
Totally not organic...in hindsight I wonder if it was a USAID funded op courtesy of your friendly neighborhood foreign clown...
Probably part of the reason why Gab blocks VPNs now like Truth has since day one, it at least filters out the 3rd world LARPers who make up a massive percentage of those accounts.
I realized accidentally on a dig a few months back that GAB just happens to be named the same as German American Bund (the group that supposedly held the MSG rally back before WWII).
Not sure if relevant or not. It could also easily simply mean “gab”, and it’s a speech platform.
Probably still more trustworthy than Facebook even if correct.
Yeah. I don’t really know what to make of that, especially with the significant natzionalesozialiste presence that’s always been there, just tucked it away as a note.
As I noted to winn while he was being concerned about “the coming AI beast system”, the Bible always told us that everything we say, do, and think is already seen anyway, so if Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be Done, on Earth as it is in Heaven, then the earthly manifestation of that might look entirely identical to the enemy’s manifestation of it, and it’s all about who ends up controlling it (and we know the final answer, regardless of the first one), and so just do your best to be righteous, clean your cup, and spread the truth.
Trite analogy, but you gotta forget that grandma can probably see you from the grave giving the Mrs the bidness...So yanno.
The thing is, this is OUR TIME. Right now, WE are the ones carrying and actually, BEING life itself.
So we must not treat it like a dress rehearsal...
As a sw dev in a previous life or so it seems - ALL commercial platforms are running their algorithms on US - the actual product, by default. I know you'll get that, but most don't... especially those glued to faceplant telling the world what they had for breakfast, their safe code and posting pics of their recent anus bleaching appointment...We are NOT the same!
What url are you using. I ask because I have account with username and password saved in my keepass database but the url is https://gab.ai
My account is still active:

It morphed into a copy of X over the weekend. That's the last I saw of it.
They did a big change to the look and functionality. Still getting used to it. They are zapping Accounts that use VPNs I think.
I don't have a Gab account. I just view the front page, and certain specific users' accounts.
Now, they don't show, and it requires an account to view anything.
At least, that's what I am seeing.

Tried that, but it is still giving me a page that tells me I must sign up.
No free viewing, anymore, it seems.
Unless I am missing something.
Is Torba requiring anyone who wants to view Gab to sign up with an account?
And without VPN?
It's working with VPN

Yeah...a good move

For sure.
