For years now, I keep retrying Gab and keep leaving it for one reason; you end up wasting your time composing posts that won't post or won't update.
"Welcome to Gab, where you can speak freely..." ... to yourself.
Technically, regardless of the justifications and excuses, the bottom line with Gab as a platform has always been that it's a dumpster fire, and the "added features" are just pouring petrol.
What is the result? A perpetual, smoldering, toxic mound of hot garbage with no end in site.

Gab - faceb**k in a frog suit
I enjoyed Gab initially. I joined several groups but my main posts were on the Christian group - daily Proverbs and scripture quotes. I posted " I stand with Israel" and received a notification from Phil the moderator of the Christian group saying my spam was unacceptable and I was no longer allowed to post - then they promptly removed me from the group. This is a group that allows a multitude of anti-semetic posts regularly! Goodbye Gab you are no different then any social media when it comes to censorship!

Gab is a unsolicited platform where you…
Gab is a unsolicited platform where you may as well be on the DARK NET.
It is full of White supremacist's, is full of racism and asks for donations or to buy clothing that are offensive to others!
Andrew Torbet is not as Christian as he tries to tell the Gab people, look into his past!

As bad as they say it is
I tried it for three months to get away from Twitter. After trying Gab, I had to delete my account. It is as bad as they say it is. Multiple Holocaust-denying groups that have been spewing lies and hate for several years that they have been open. The creators don't care as it is 'free speech'. Free speech is not saying whatever you want, however you want, whenever you want, wherever you want. That is anarchy.

HACKED!!
HACKED!!! SERIOUSLY?!?! So yesterday Torba makes this post (which is who you will hear from most like he is your God and you are his minions...anybody else miss Tom?) saying it was his and "Trumps" account that got hacked and how "honest" he is with us yadda yadda....NO! According to the news and everyone else TODAY, WE ALL GOT HACKED!! But as for his "honesty" it's not really Trump's account even though it continues to post new things, if you read the bio it's just Trumps archived Twitter posts, yet it posts new videos of things like the cpac speeches, AND says it has like 1.8m followers but if you click it it says this person has no followers... WHAT A FRAUD! Yeah, so UNFORTUNATELY I had a friend sign up the night before to see if they got any "likes" or any sort of response to be fair and nope, same as me, immediate shadow ban! We can't even find each other in a search! But we both got "sign up for premium!" messages when we tried to post...HAH! I don't think so. If I can't see if I like it there I'm surely not going to pay for it to find out. But not only does my loyal friend test something for me, but they get snagged in the hack! Thanks a lot!...There are some decent people there, unfortunately the "leader" has such a god complex it's not a nice place, he's daily calling someone names and this guy seriously reminds me of a cult leader, using verse when it suits his needs then spewing toxic hate in the same sentence all while telling people how great him and Gab are and trying to get people to do his bidding against others. But I guess everyone will figure that out soon enough thanks to him trying to be facebook, twitter, and youtube all at once BEFORE getting decent security in place, a scam last week, a hack this week, I'm furious!!

GAB SUPPORTS WHITE SUPREMACISTS
The very first thing I ran into were several white supremacists saying some extremely nasty things about jews and blacks. Things that were offensive to all walks of life. They all have accounts plastered with pictures of hitler, swastikas and the KKK. This is not my idea of free speech......his is actually the definition of hate speech. If you have any conservative or moral values this place will make your skin crawl. Absolutely disgusting

Gab is NOT freedom of speech friendly!
Gab seems like a free speech platform and brags as being one, so I joined. I never threatened anyone or posted any illegal or violent comments or content. Im conservative, a Trump supporter and a Bill of Rights activist. I never violated any of Gab's policies, and I really enjoyed being able to speak my mind, or so I thought... I woke up this morning, logged into Gab and Zuckerberg, excuse me... Torba had banned my profile for no valid reason. But of course, he reserves the right to ban you at "his discretion". So much for freedom of speech...
As for being a right wing site, I would have to disagree. Trump would do well to avoid Gab as he has no stronger supporter than myself, and this is how Gab treated me. I am not racist, nor am I violent. I don't support any groups that promote criminal activity. I have a petition to give Florida the ability to RECALL so we can remove anti-Constitutional politicians like Rubio, Wasserman-Schultz, Crist and others in Florida that oppose free speech and the Bill of Rights. I'm fighting to protect our Republic and the Constitution and Gab suspended me for it! I am Patriot party and an activist for American freedom. Yet I don't deserve to have a voice in Gab... I have seen violent content and people promoting hate in Gab and all I seek is freedom and I'm banned? Hypocritical to say the least...

This is where systemic racism is not…
This is where systemic racism is not only encouraged but preached. This app is used by racists and white supremacists and is dangerous for our societies.
