Torba is a David Horowitz alumni, spoke at his freedom center, haha. Honeypot. Place is sooo buggy and won't work if you want to find anything controversial. The entire point of Gab is to deradicalize dissidents and keep them screaming at everyone but the criminals at the top. You want to find out about Zionism, search and you get ads for Laura Loomer or Trump. Lmao.

Tip for consumers:
Gab made it so you had to ID yourself if you want to see more than two month old posts. Again, a stupid Mossad honeypot. I yearn for an EMP.

In March, he gave everybody who was not a pro member 1 week to pay to join or you wouldn't be able to post memes or photos. He made people feel like leeches so many people left, including me. Go to the website without signing in and you will see the hate for Jewish people all over the comments. I had these people blocked when I was a member so I didn't realize how awful the whole website had gotten until I did quit. Stay away unless that is your sort of thing.

I can honestly say that no social media platform comes even close to GAB.com, a place where absolute free speech is practiced not just in theory. Not only that, most people there love God. There are almost no ungodly people there and many of them know about the real problem in this world, if you know what I mean.

Gab has helped my young business find clients, share my personal convictions openly, and connect with like-minded business owners.

There's a lot of misleading articles online about the platform, and I found them to be inaccurate after checking things out for myself. Free speech is truly celebrated and all are welcome to participate.

I offer content writing services for small business owners, and I've formed a healthcare (my niche) related group where honest discussions around the industry are taking place.

It's easy to mute or block those who use foul or suggestive language you morally don't agree with. Without moderation by the Gab team, the community does a good enough job of rooting out bad characters.

I came in skeptical but am left with the impression this platform is here to stay. They continue to attract new users daily and their "stock" will continue to soar!

Tip for consumers:
Experiment with different types of content and join industry/hobby related groups for growing your followers.

I've been very involved in social media of all sorts from the start, and nothing has impressed me more than what gab is building. I'm looking forward to it continuing its constant incremental growth. I deeply appreciate its stand for free speech and big tech autonomy.

Last night I made a page for my Cannabis company here in Canada. We are a legit business and do everything by the book. I posted twice, just explaining what our shop is and has for products, and they blocked me...

Now, I would think this was fine BUT, I have a Twitter, Facebook & Instagram for my business and I have never been blocked (almost like they realize it's legal) anyway, GAB advertises is self as free speech, and allows people to post what they want. I beg to differ. You guys suck! I'll never be back, and I hope you go under. Pathetic.

Tip for consumers:
Don't use it, it's worse then Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, and all they want is your money. There market place is full of there own products, and everywhere they are looking for donations

Products used:
None because they suck.

Looked pretty good at first but then you start noticing a pattern of hate and anti semitism, this might as well be an extension of storm front. Also the app is so slow since it's not a native iOS or android phone app, deleted my account immediately.

If you want a healthy dose of death threats towards anyone with a differing viewpoint and antisemitism behind political candidates pages, gab is the place to go. I left a few nice comments for a candidate running for mayor in my state and guarantee i'll probably be kicked off despite the "freedom of speech" they mention. It's a pathetic website and is really an eye opener towards the real extremist, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, bible bumping morons who somehow think their hateful views will land them in heaven. Again, if you want to see the dark side of the American conservatives, the true thoughts in their heads, log into gab and go to any republicans page. Apparently they want the antisemitists as their support base.

Tip for consumers:
Don’t use it unless you’re also a hateful moron.

I'm a conservative and respect Christians. However, I am not a Christian and I clearly wasn't welcome on this site. I can't believe that Gab is good for Christianity. Gab makes Christians look hateful, angry, and dangerous. I know many Christians and they are positive, moral people. I tried to unsubscribe and it is close to impossible. They want you to send a letter via snail mail as opposed to clicking on the unsubscribe like every other site. Your membership is permanent and will follow you to the grave.

Gab is F#ckin garbage. I signed up for pro account and attempted to start a business (selling war trophies) on their failed marketplace. Do not sign up for gab its turned into a garbage pile. I couldn't even delete my account I had to email customer support. Terrible. Andrews platform has fallen by the wayside. He has created another hater of his platform. I am now a canvassing advocate against GAB. Great work Andrew Torba.

Useless as a screen door on a submarine! Overwhelming email spam and when you blacklist them they find a way to even bypass my banning their IP address that these idiots use. I have reported them and I am going all out to stop them and their harassing me! I have sent emails and also a letter requesting that they cease and completely send to me as I have clicked numerous time to "UNSUBSCRIBE" If I would have known that this harassing me from gab.com, I would never have even been a part of their mess.

Do you feel out of trend with what the newest derogatory slang is on the internet? Come to Gab! We have you covered.

This Free Speech platform really does not give a F about what you write or call people. Because FREEDOM.

So while you'll find some fantastic crypto bros, and interesting trolls, it's just a big old mess. You know you're in once someone threatens to bash your head in or yell at you about some conspiracy.

But you know what? It's fun as hell...

I thought that free speech would be great on a conservative site. I was wrong. Racists (in the true sense of the word) have no problem spewing their venomous slurs, and liberals are free to make as many stupid comments as is humanly possible. 12 hours is definitely a record for deleting my account anywhere, and I give 'gab' all the credit.

It is black hating, Jew hating, Muslim hating... everything that is NOT white! If you haven't seen the movie Imperium, watch it NOW! Everything said in the movie is echoed on GAB!
"Remind $#*!s their not liked by the white race" ( did I also mention they don't know the difference between they're and their?)
"They didn't put ENOUGH bullets into that $#*!!"
"You stupid $#*!ing $#*!s need to stop calling me "porky' and all that other $#*!. I AM HEALTHY! You fools know nothing about me. Stop judging me."
"You're healthy enough for 3 people, because you're the size of 3 people."
And then there are the endless conspiracy theories offered up by a YouTube video pretending to be proof!
The platform is a cesspool of hate. It is where anyone who feels victimized goes to complain.

Minority religious nuts trying to fundamentally change America by merging church and state. Boosted by Russian trolls. Regularly suggests violence is necessary to carry out "God's plan".

Tip for consumers:
run. run as fast as you can. America was founded off religious persecution and now the Right want to impose their religion on America.

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.

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.

You will literally get banned from this website faster than twitter. The creator cares about "freedom of speech" when it's speech he agrees with. I got deleted for having an opinion. I didn't spam, I didn't promote violence, I didn't share any inappropriate pictures. I just had an opinion that establishment conservatives don't like. So my account was deactivated.

October 2018 update: Things at Gab have been good since they got rid of the spammers. I like Gab and I hope they continue to grow. There is a lot of exchange of good /news & information going on that I cannot imagine Twitter/facebook would allow. The average Gab user is better informed because they can see through the propaganda.

With the recent changes they're doing on gab, I can't use it because I'm not a developer and they haven't given us old members advice on how to go about using the new network.

I still have a few months remaining on my subscription as a pro member so therefore I would like a refund but I don't know how I can communicate with them.

I don't really know if gab or the old gab was a free speech platform because like some of the commenters here, I suspected I was shadow banned. I'm speaking here as someone who seldom posted comments on the old gab. Maybe it's not Torba who personally instructed his programmers to ban people maybe it's an independent decision of the programmer to cause mischief.

If gab won't refund then gab would be called another scam on the internet.

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.

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.

From a speed standpoint it is getting better but still has a long ways to go to get rid of both in house and outside hackers. It is the closest to free speech on the net that I have found and I have looked intensively. So that is a big plus. Unfortunately it comes at a big price by allowing nutcase nazis, bigots, just plain crazies to post whatever the hell they want to. They are not very open about their goals and plans to resist Gov. Takeover or deplatformng. They want investors but don't answer questions about what their future strategies are to avoid Gov. Control and the NWO. The guy running it seems like a reasonable Christian but sympathizes with jew haters at his own peril. They need better software, better tamper proof backbone to the internet, faster servers, but they insist on just doing stuff they think will generate more money (understandable). It's a good site if you can get past all the nazis, bigots and other wackos. They won't delete you account in my experience but they will allow shadowbanning it seems.

OK, we'll start with the good. Pretty good about free speech. Me and my group of close pals can be pretty rough and none of us has ever been reprimanded. In my wider circle some have be banned, but again what we say on a daily basis would never fly on Facebook or Twitter.
If you're touchy about certain subjects or do not like your beliefs questioned, or love being in the echo chamber, you have the option to mute or block people, so they can never comment on your stuff and you will never see anything they write (a feature I think they put in to attract Alex Jones and ppl like that to the platform, since they do not like to be challenged.
Unfortunately, the platform itself has lots of trouble. Most days it takes several tries to connect, sometimes losing connection several times a day. Sometimes it'll be offline for whole days.
The way the conversations unfold are very confusing. Twitter is far superior on that score.
Also, in terms of the privacy issue: There was a shooting that involved a guy who was a Gab user (who also used Twitter and others), and Gab was happy to hand over everything to investigators without warrants or anything, many people who were in no way involved with the crime ended up being visited by the FBI.
So user beware.
