Parler
« on: November 08, 2020, 02:44:48 PM »
A mostly conservative social media site. We signed up for it and so far so good. But swamped with new members leaving Facebook and Twitter. Easy to use, but they are getting behind with all the new members.
Ted Cruze and Mark Levin are on there, so is Rush Limbaugh.

I haven't seen any antisemitism on there. A lot of conservitive Jews post on there with no problems.
A lot of pro 2nd amendment people do also. Anti liberal and against abortion members

They want my cell phone number to sign up.  I'm not thrilled about giving it out.

Well I’m not switching. All my friends, family, & associates are on Facebook and we have had no problems. Most all out AG missionaries and pastors use FB. And I appreciate the world wide connections.

There have been other member boards in the past, but none worked as well as FB in the long term.

What I’ve found is that most problems anticipated turned out to be non problems. Just a bunch of mail-contents stirring the pot. You guys do realize GBO has a FB page.

At least they don't ask for a photo ID like FB is doing to some members. Or they block your account.
Parler only asked me for one of two things, my email or my phone number.  And they use a captcha to make
sure your a human. 1.5 million daily users, 2.8 overall.
