I've been using gab for several months. At first it was slow due to the number of people who were migrating from other platforms. It is now running great as they have beefed up their infrastructure. Free speech for all. They WILL NOT block you unless you are doing something illegal or dangerous. If you don't like something someone posts then you have to block them.

Gab has made some serious improvements! It's the only alternative social media site that actually compares to what you're used to in quality and structure

Made an account to troll the Qultist and it started out fun made my account libtears4lube (follow meeee) hahaha these people had no idea i was trolling them and really thought the crazy $#*! i was saying was "compelling" which gives light to how $#*!ING STUPID the average users are that no one batted an eye to my bat$#*! comments. Anyways the trolling was fun but the website in itself is garbage… Links dont work, comments dont post, notifications wont show up… the site is a hot steamy $#*! but thats probably because no one wants to advertise on their platform and theyre broke… Biden 2020!

I deleted my Facebook account and joined Gab because they claimed they allowed freedom of speech. I am a conservative Trump supporter, my son is named after his black great grandfather. I am not racist, am non-violent, and am a strong Bill of Rights activist. I started a petition in Florida to get the right to RECALL Anti-Constitutional politicians in Florida like Never-Trumper Marco Rubio, who recently proposed a gun confiscation Bill to the Senate, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, who kept Islamic spies as IT personnel, and Charlie Crist among others. I broke no laws and made no threats against anyone. I violated no policies of Gab yet it's founder Mark Zuckerberg, excuse me, Andrew Torba banned me. So much for freedom of speech. Just another hypocritical Zuckerberg wannabe that claims he supports Trump and the Bill of Rights, but in Reality only seeks power and profit. There is no integrity in Gab. I seriously doubt Torba is even Christian. He probably just uses that claim to cash in on religious people. He reserves the right to take your money and ban you at his own discretion. Donald Trump would be wise to avoid Gab. I feel Torba would only use him to gain followers and then Zuckerberg his account once he gets them.

Big tech has no control here. Freedom of speech is the main reason it is becoming so popular. Do you want unbiased news? Come here. Thank you Gab!

Paid into it & lost big time. Literally spent 1 week trying to post, gain followers, & follow back. Gab claims they have 30 million followers & soon to increase to 100 million. If they can't handle technical issues with 30 million followers, how the hell are they going to keep the site functioning with 100 million? Don't WASTE your money, TIME, & sense of PEACE!

First of all I am a trump supporter
And an atheist
So went on gab
Opening an account was easy
However
I found the site is unusable
The only person posting is the ceo
Spouting religious crap all day and
talking about himself
No way to see what other users are saying
Only a few people show up in trending
(the same ones everyday)
Dissenter feed is trash

I closed my account because
Gab has NOTHING to offer
A complete waste of time

Also the claim of no nsfw content is a blatent lie

We need a conservative site but we also need one that works as hopefully we'd have smarter people putting together sites than GAB… Can't log on after creating an account and it just sits there and churns. Again, somehow I hope there are smarter people out there on our side.

Gab owners tout how they created a "free speech" platform free from big tech, yet it's only a for-profit, paywalled, fork/clone of Mastodon for right-wingers and fascists. They are duping people for profit, just like Trump. Ask yourself, why would you pay for something when it is already free? Anyone can install Mastodon just like Gab did, with little to no programming experience. This is why they currently can't scale, yet blame it on "sophisticated attacks" from "Big Tech". Fact is, Gab has not built anything. If people want freedom, the solution is not to rely on another centralized system that is easily scraped and CAN be shutdown.

While Gab claims they are free from "Big Tech," they currently use Cloudflare, a Silicon Valley DNS proxy and DDoS mitigation service. They have banned numerous similar sites to Gab and will most likely shutdown Gab in the near future. Those sophisticated attacks? Easily blocked or rate limited. Their real issue is most likely that they have no real data center with redundant fiber drops and Tier 1 bandwidth and simply begging for Bitcoin.

Their web browser? Just another clone/fork of another project others developed, better known as Brave. They are literally just rebranding popular open source technology developed by others and grifting the unintelligent.

As "ThatOldLibOnGab" I was a Gab member from just after the November 2020 election until January 6,2021. I made numerous quality posts during that time and many times even received "likes" from conservatives. On my last day I was very critical of the Capital attack in D. C. and suddenly without notice or explanation my account was deactivated ("You don't have permission to view this page" everywhere) and all my Gabs were deleted. The owners of Gab have the right to implement any moderation policy they choose but their claims of "freedom of speech" are blatantly false.

Claims they are about free speech but will block you when they disagree with what you say. This site is full of people who just spew hate and horible ideals

Having recently rejoined Gab in a more active way, I can say that the site is improving at a fast rate.
Gab is perhaps among the most visually appealing of all the social media pages and feels like a mix of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram merged together. This all of course, without the inhibiting so called "rules" of the latter. And in all honesty, without all the mindless "additions" such as instagram stories, or facebook's variety of zero tolerance "fact checking". And do not even get me started on Twitter and their over zealous locking and suspending procedures, to name just a few of their MANY problems.

If you value free speech, freedom of expression and the once variety of thought we had on online platforms, then please support and help lift Gab. This site deserves it and is one of the few to be genuinely taking the fight to big tech.

Oh and by the way, when Gab is labelled as far right or an alt right echo chamber, please consider this, that freedom of speech is for ALL people not just the few. EVERYONE is free to join the site, it is just that some of the certain types that joined, had to find a new platform, after the vast majority were unfairly banned.
To explain further, when the media mention the particular Pittsburgh terrorist attack and targeted Gab because of it, they all conveniently forget that terrorists and all people of ill intent have used the other platforms for similar evil causes. Just a few examples, disgruntled journalist streamed on Youtube and shot his colleagues, plus numerous cases of lone wolf types communicating on Facebook and Twitter, among others. And do we just all forget how Isis and similar dodgy terrorist accounts were all over Twitter, just a couple of years ago, with many still on there now? Why do they get off without criticism, unlike Gab? The answer, they are WAY too powerful and have the market too themselves essentially now.
The media is scared and threatened by Gab, because it effectively over time can break the suffocating stranglehold that the likes of Facebook and Twitter in particular have had. This is just the truth.

Hoping to see further improvements as the site grows and Gab ultimately may be able to force the hands of big tech in the end. This especially, if users switch or leave those platforms in their droves.
Nobody wants to see genuine hatred and acts of war and so on, but guess what? This stuff is banned too on Gab, it is just there are more freedoms, the same freedoms that everyone USED to have before these big tech giants "made it big" and all decided to move the goalposts.

To finish, I would argue further that joining Gab is not only a good way to protest the un-vetted arrogance and dominance of big tech, but also itself is an increasingly adept machine.
Gab looks to be heading in the right direction and will hopefully increase its userbase to rival the big social media pages in the years to come.

For now, to fully enjoy the site, I would suggest going for a Pro Upgrade account and then you can post practically whatever picture or video you like (Pro account limits = pics 50mb, videos 1gb).
So get back to enjoying social media and be part of a genuine discussion, not just a safe space.
The internet, like life, is for everyone and the sooner big tech wakes up and stops mistreating its users, the better.
Join Gab now, make a difference and lets take back the internet for EVERYONE!

They hate Germans and will not allow the truth of WW2 to be discussed freely. I was kicked out b/c of my pro Hitler stance. I do what i do on the web to educate TRUTHFULLY about European History I am not a white supremist, nor do i wish jews to die. Neither did Adolf Hitler!

I joined Gab a year ago as an alternative to Facebook. I soon realised that Gab is not about free speech. It is about a certain type of right-wing, Bible belt, pro-Trumpism spech. People who dare to express an opinion outside this strict worldview are systematically bullied and insulted. Gab's CEO Andrew Torba is religious lunatic whose weekly rants would make Hitler turn in his grave. Gab is not about free speech. It is about his speech.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of free speech, this will have the side effect of crude people posting things that would be lewd or inappropriate for children. This site should only be used by adults. As for the free and unhindered expression of ideas, I have found this site to be a breath of fresh air when compared to Twitter, Facebook, Google, and the like.

Wonderful in the beginning. Don't believe their free speech claims. Free speech as long as you don't criticize their terrible feed and constant spamming ads promoting their site and begging for contributions. This guy Torba CLAIMS to be a Christian but you can tell he is mostly interested in making money. They will block your feed to the site and hack your feed/connection to the site if they don't like your criticisms of their very poor website management. Also lots of neo-nazis, neo-KKK racists and white supremacists there. Also a lot of religious nuts prosetlytizing on the site. Gets really old. Like most websites this one is big on promises it does not keep. I have no competitive or monetary interests in this review, just my experience. I created more than one ID so I could check on their blocking and hacking my connection. Sure enough the ID that they don't like gets blocked. The other one does not, but soon will be after I start telling the truth about the site.

Gab is a social media platform that welcomes all who want uncensored speech. It attracts all kinds of people including Christians, atheists', white supremist, strange but interesting conversations, lucid conversations and more. The have a Block and a Mute option if you don't want to read somebody's posts. Overall, a good site. I don't see any anti-Semitism or white supremacy posts.

From what I see it is mainly trolls acting like the worst parts of society.
There's very few legitimate people you can have a decent chat with, at times it literally feels like a a bunch of crazy people trying to say the most offensive thing and the first person to cave and take offence get to be harassed.

Might be a honeypot, Offers free speech but then trys to ID you and you cannot use proxies. SLOWWWW servers constant lags and disconnects. A real PITA to use. Does not confirm your post was made. Poorly coded site with servers that cannot handle the load-error messages saying server cannot deal with the load.

They have improved the site, now faster and easier to login. However they still will not allow tor or proxies often. COnstantly getting that crap from cloudflaire "one more step" bs. No censorship which is very rare on the net nowadays. They still need to work on their webpage to make it easier to use without bugs.

New Social Media free speech site that doesn't censor it's users.
It follows laws from the U.S. Supreme Court & is moderated.
SJW's may not enjoy it, but if you want news and a great community – this is it!

Full of all sort of hate speech, and it's impossible to sign out of their newsletter.
Customer "support" ignores your requests.
