Sadly a lot of people I recommend Parler to don't like SMS verification or the fact that you can't view content without signing up.
I hope they fix this.
Maybe we can politely ask @john the owner to fix it because if they do I think Trump would join for sure...
Yet.
Do you want Parler to be overrun with kooks? Because that's how you get overrun with kooks. You have to have something in place to discourage it. Leftists would love to infiltrate Parler and post a bunch of racist crap on it.
SMS verification
~~~
Ack!
Really?
I was going to sign up too!
That’s exacly what I just posted! That they want a phone number, to sign up :-(
And, the other day I mentioned not being able to read peets/pweets (whatever posts, there, are called :) without being a member. :-(
Can you please pweet @john and ask him about that :-)
Who is John, btw?
I signed up because Ted did. I turned on him when he miscalled the disruptors at a rally Trump supporters but he has since redeemed himself.
If it doesn't allow public viewing without registration, Parler will die sooner than later.
Rand has nearly 500k followers on Parler. On twitter he has 2.8 million...
Wow...
Goes to show you this thing is growing QUICKLY ...
Every time I look there has been a massive increase in comments/traffic and followers..
I joined!
.
HOW DO YOU ACCESS IT WITHOUT AN APP ???
You should be able to READ (If not post) with just a normal Browser (including support for older browsers)
They need to get their act together.

Registration reduces bots!
Get the next one ready. Google or some commie will buy him out and shut it down.
“They don’t censor or shadow ban.”
I suspect he doesn’t know what shadow ban means.
It didn’t like my auto created secure password.
SMS stopped me too. oh well.
“Sadly a lot of people I recommend Parler to don’t like SMS verification or the fact that you can’t view content without signing up.”
Precisely, I spent an hour the other day trying to figure the system out. I’ve never registered to Twitter but I do keep up with many peoples posts on there. Never signed up to anything in fact social media since myspace and believe it or not I don’t have a smart phone.
On Parler I can’t read anything and I’m not doing the SMS either so its a non-starter for me. They need to at least allow anonymous viewing.
Thanks...just added him to my followings. Never joined Twitter, Facebook, or any of them. This is my first foray into a social media site. Just joined a couple of days ago.
I hope this site takes off.
I hate Twitter.
I’ve been on it for a couple of days now. Not sure it works...
I joined Parler today. I like the concept of a free exchange of ideas, even ideas that are not popular.
Ps you can use a fake #
More and more good guys there
