“Incredible, the greatest social media platform ever”

Legenden g.
4/6/24

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.

Top Critical Review

“The site is full of Jewish haters including the CEO.”

CJ J.
6/8/24

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.

Beware: Joined Gab & slowly was put into a shadow ban situation surrounded by Liberal shills/ trolls pretending to be "doubting" Trump supporters. Gab is a haven for Liberal shills & a trap echo chamber for Conservatives. Don't be fooled by this fake Free speech forum that is designed to act as an "option" to Twitter. Torba is a fake Conservative, a Neocon. He speaks frequently on the site, which is unusual for a CEO, & his comments are in line with the Liberal shills on Gab who's comments try to undermine real Trump supporters. Not to mention all the anti-Semitism being generated by these FAKE Trump supporters. Here's the Con, boot a Conservative from Twitter & hope they find their way to their prison camp, (echo chamber) which is GAB.

I recently joined Gab after being shadowbanned and then thrown in Twitter jail for 12 hours, and my first log in experience set the tone for this app and why I'm rating a 2. When checking out my new social media app I began with some commenting, nothing major just some simple facts. Immediately I was bombarded with a ton of very horrible comments from very far right extremists. I was called a commie and a kike loving slag for commending a black man who told his story about "walking away". I was then followed by these people and was unable to ban them from following me, I could only mute them. That was one feature I did not like at all. I don't want to be connected to people like that in any way! I sucked it up for about a month then I was having trouble with my account and something about invalid credentials so I reached out several times to the admins for help and never got a response. I quickly realized that even people with the same ideology as myself would attack and berate me if I dared to disagree with them... and these were so called conservatives! I left twitter due to censorship and now I've left Gab due to no monitoring at all. Gab is a host for far right extremists and porn. It's free speech but I feel it is just another platform for horrible people to bully, harass, and make threats against good, honest, intelligent people who are looking for like minded friends or for healthy debate. To each their own but I wouldn't recommend Gab unless you just want to fight and argue.

It started out good. It was freedom to speak freely without the bans that feuxbook and twatter do. But slowly Torba is making it become leftist. O discordia, the tower has fallen

I paid $99 initially to join Gab about a year and a half ago. I would NEVER pay again. At the start, I had over 1800 written replies to a one paragraph comment on one post. I only had a few hundred followers at the time. Now I have 2.5 thousand followers and am lucky to get 10 interactions. I post original content and articles. I do not see the people I follow and want to see and they do not see me. I was censored and removed once already since the cutesy emoticons arrived. Do not trust the platform if you value your privacy. It is collecting data that will eventually be used against you in some way. It is the same censoring that is used by Fakebook and Twittler. Today I could not post a comment or share a well written paragraph. The message was "YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SHARE OR COMMENT ON THIS POST..." GAB IS HEAVILY CENSORED BY SHADOW BANNING!

Tip for consumers:
Use Gab at your own risk. It appears to promote hate speech. Saying something is not censored when it is may not be illegal but it should be.

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.

Tip for consumers:
Do yourself a favor and JUST. DON'T.

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!

These clowns at Gab just kicked me out for promoting medicinal cannabis.
Shame on you, hypocritical scum trying to pass as a libertarian site.

Gab is worse than twitter when it comes to getting around on the app. Can't post anything because no keyboard. Just sick of apps that don't work.

I've been on GAB a while now, and have been made very welcome. The people are mostly really great, and of course, as Andrew Gorba, the owner states, there is NO censorship. I've heard that there might still be a waiting list, but when I applied, my wait was only two weeks. This site does not pry and only asks for a username, an email address and password. If a person wants to fill in a profile, that is up to them.

I love that certain words can be filtered out of comments sent, and people can be muted if they are annoying or rude. There are categories to choose from so communication and postings will be specifically directed to those with the same opinions or beliefs, which I really like.

This site is taking over from FaceBook and Twitter, (with worldwide members) and those two deserve to lose its members for all the censoring they do!

As I do still post on Twitter, it's a nice touch that there is an option for the GAB.ai postings to go straight through to Twitter.

The site is free and many seem to choose that option, but there is a very low fee membership which gains a few extra perks, (like saving certain postings or bookmarking comments) and there is an acknowledgement to go by the profile name if you go PRO. Also a person can become verified, which I particularly like. Then we get a blue tick by our name! Many people on there prefer, as I do, to use their real name.

Members can donate any time they feel like it, as there is no outside interference, and the site is kept running by membership donations, which is posted in a banner so we can see how well we are doing on there.

The support group actually respond! Amazing! Overall, it seems THE place to be and I hear there is a possibility of our President Trump coming over some time soon. Some of his people are already there. I expect POTUS is having too much fun tweeting right now, lol! But at least, on GAB.ai, he will not be censored and neither will his loyal supporters!

I LOVE THE SITE and the #GABfam! (Short for family)

Just editing to add that Gab.ai is no more. As of September 2018 the site is now Gab.Com

I have been on Gab 10 months as a Pro (paid) user, but I wont be renewing my subscription. During my time on Gab I get the distinct impression that Andrew Torba CEO is highly embarrassed by his far right user base & since about May 2018 he is trying (& succeeding) to turn Gab liberal. There is even talk of shadow banning from some of (what were) top popular posters. Torba recently said "If you visited Gab 6 months ago & came back today, you would see an entirely different site" & he is very correct with this. 6 months ago in "popular" you would see edgy breaking news, conservative people, & some great memes, but today all you see if you click "popular" is sunrise pictures wishing everyone a good morning, Alex Jones, puppies, kittens & inane posts from Torba's own family (Torba family is in the "who to follow" section too.) There is also the irritating constant changes to the site itself, as Torba transforms it for liberals to keep "start-engine" happy, even going as far as to remove the frog logo.
I would advise anyone considering a Gab Pro subscription, to think again because the features are very limited for the high cost, & you can not get verified unless you are an e-celebrity on twitter, facebook or other mainstream social media.
Another problem is how the site is currently set up, in that there are no organic trending topics, just bland sections to post in, almost like an old message forum. You can set up your own topic but these (under more) rarely get more than a dozen posts & are often filled with porn & spam, which is not removed. There is also an issue with bots & blank empty posts getting 1,000 upvotes (?) & what appears to be an algorithm glitch as popular posts get buried.
So far Gab.ai Inc has raised almost $6 million, & it needs to invest in a decent IT team, because presently the way things are working, people will grow bored, frustrated & leave. The concept of free speech is a wonderful idea but Torba is sacrificing this to appeal to SJW progressives. It's sad to say that over the time I have been on there some of the most dynamic & excellent Gabbers have left or been banned.
I have rated gab at a 2, honestly from a slightly right of centre classic conservative opinion. But also for Gab's technical failings. However, if you are liberal you may want to give Gab a go, because that is the direction it's heading in. Good Luck!
