Anyone else dubious of Parler after all this? They really shit the bed with the Amazon servers. Amazon does all of our intelligence agency stuff.
They left Amazon AFAIK.
But they were on Amazon, all our accounts were on Amazon servers. Which caused them to shit the bed and lose service during a critical time further hamstringing free speech while financially supporting Jeff Bezos and the US Intelligence community.
They, along with gab weren’t available when we all needed them the most. Personally, I’m sticking to here and telegram.
Can't blame Gab. They run their own physical server farms and ramped up as fast as they could. This is a bs conflating attack of Gab or super ignorant of the facts.
No, I can blame Gab. They had years to get their shit together and kept saying over and over they were ready for the Twitter purge and to come over. Well, they weren’t and at a very critical time were unavailable to us all. And you shouldn’t blindly trust Gab, or any social media site, btw. Don’t assume they are the good guys. Don’t assume anything.
That"s the argument of a child. It takes real dollars to run a host and run a server farm that can handle Twitter users at the rate everyone moved over. You don't build that and let it sit because you hope some external event will drive everyone literally overnight (which it did).
They invested and got the site running well in a week. For a free fucking service. Don't be a faggot.
Your “argument” is made up. The CEO of gab had said over and over they were ready for the mass influx, and then when it happened, they weren’t, and the site was utterly useless when we needed it the most. Facts matter. Don’t be a faggot.
Parler also has made some huge security privacy mistakes that fuvked their users. I wouldn't go back to them. They are the neocon RINO version of Twitter. The UniParty R side to control and monitor us the same as the left side is with Twitter.
My argument is sound, based in common sense. Also as someone in the industry who knows.
He had an appeal for the users to migrate over years, and a general marketing appeal most same people understand could work no other way for any social media company offering a service without all the user analytics harvesting revenue. Parler being shut down on AWS was also an unnatural tyrannical event no one saw coming.
Until you build your own platform, understand the cost of paid transit per mbs, colocation, systems upgrades, server and storage costs, you might want to stfu and be grateful.
The emotional statement of "When we needed it most." is pure faggotry that ignores reality.
Then again, maybe you are a Parler investor?
I'll pass on using the Mercer's latest tool. Gab is fine for me.
Parler's good for news aggregation. I wouldn't post much in the way of personal information, but I don't do that anywhere. If the NSA wants me, they can find me, no matter what precautions I take.
CEO left though.
This. We cannot guarantee the company has the same mission and stance on free speech as before.
There have been some indication that they will censor like the other big platforms.
Pass.
Parler Trick. Even ignoring the fuckery, the interface is terrible. Telegram and gab were much better. Wtf is a parley and an echo.
