Could have better features
but for a non-million dollar company they doing a fantastic job
And with the level of attacks against them I'm impressed they've managed to survive
Freedom of speech is a fundamental right
and companies and organisations that about it should be praised even if their software isn't perfect

I love Gab
I love Gab, it has become my favorite social media platform. I do not see the prejudice, censorship and manipulation that I saw being doled out to conservatives on other platforms, plus I found it to be very user friendly. It’s geared toward patriotic conservatives but the same standards apply to everyone regardless of where you stand. There are hateful people on there, as there are on all platforms, but overall I think the people on Gab are nicer, friendlier people and there are a large number of groups you can join depending on your interest. I find myself on it more than any of the other platforms I am on and heartily recommend it to anyone who would like to express their ideas freely & have greater control over their own content.

Free speech
Free speech. With constitutional limits, which is right on. You don't have to put things in code or intentionally misspell them to try to skip the AI and (compromised) fact checkers. Excellent, excellent. One of two or three social media companies that have any redeeming value to society.

Lively Conversations
As a long time social media user I have grown tired of the constant marketing on my timeline. Social media used to be fun, and about catching up with friends. That’s no longer the case on corporate social sites! From the constant marketing to date mining, it’s just not fun to be somebody else’s product.
I waited a long time to join Gab. Other sites have a false impression about Gab, and so I did not join the site until after Parler was deplatformed. What I discovered when I joined Gab was a website that I could use to curate my news feed to show me the types of content that interested me most. From technology discussions to breaking news, I always find something useful every time I open Gab.
Gab does not have an app in the corporate app stores, but instead uses a Progressive Web App. At first I thought this would be a drawback, but I’ve grown to love it since it uses almost no space on my phone.
If you’re looking to move on from the old social media sites, and want to go somewhere new, then this one is worth trying.

How Facebook used to be. Give it a try!
Gab.com is actually a free speech platform, unlike big tech platforms like Twitter or Facebook. I’ve been on for several months and can say what they are building is impressive. Unlike some posters who claim Gab is full of white supremacists (who have never used Gab) I see none of that in the groups/people I follow. Art, college football, design, so many communities that are helpful here. People actually having dialogues, and violence/threats aren’t tolerated (by law). Hate speech is still free speech, and while both sides may engage in that, Gab is self regulating and I rarely see any of it (much more on Twitter honestly, against white people). Gab also doesn’t allow porn (like Twitter). The big thing is they don’t let someone’s subjective opinion of free speech force them into creating a moderation policy that lines up with big tech, so that’s great. Some big names are on here and it’s growing like crazy (independents, liberals, conservatives) So give it a try. It’s awesome knowing that you don’t have to worry about Facebook adding labels to your own thoughts or encouraging/creeping on you to vote (or any other cause they want to push). Just create an add to home app/bookmark for gab.com, since it’s not in the app stores.

You Decide
About half of these reviews are BS and politically motivated. The only true solution is to give it a try for yourself.
