Conservative Parler App Passes TikTok And YouTube to Take #1 Spot
Shore News ^ | Nov 9 | Shore News

It’s no secret. Facebook and Twitter have been relentlessly attacking conservative media outlets, Republicans, and Trump supporters for quite some time, but this week, they took their actions to a whole new level. The two tech giants have squelched the President; censored major conservative-leaning media outlets and personalities; and essentially declared an information war against anyone who disagrees with their political views.

Parler, a social media alternative to Facebook and Twitter, owned in part by Conservative media figure Dan Bongino has welcome “Faceblock” and “Shtitter” political refugees with open arms and it has paid off. This week Parler became the top downloaded mobile app, passing TikTok and YouTube.

“The media and the anti-Trump lunatics have awakened a sleeping giant. We gave a collective middle finger to the tech tyrants as Parler remains the NUMBER ONE most downloaded app in the world. Thank you!” Bongino said Sunday.

I have been trying to sign up for a day. I don’t know if it’s my computer or what but it doesn’t respond when I click on the big button to join.

Dan Bongino is a part of this?

Going to try harder tomorrow! ;)

I downloaded and installed it on my tablet. I have followed Newt Gingrich, Dan Bongino, Matt Schlapp. Who are some other notable Parler users worth following?

I live in Spain. I got a lot of timeouts trying to join up. I just kept hitting the back button and trying again until everything worked.

they will clean up their app, it's getting a lot of people signing up, gotta get through the glitches. Keep with it, tough. Twitter is a cesspool of AOC types so not sure why conservatives and even libertarians want to be on there they are not going to convince the wackos of anything and always wind up being censored.
Twitter isn't even good at promoting things.

Get non Americans to follow as well. I found Gert Wilders, and Marion Marechal. Can’t find Nigel Farage, Frauke Petry or Viktor Orban yet

I’m too jaded to believe Parler won’t eventually let everyone down. You’re giving up a lot of personal info to join these sites, only to have them basically kick you to the curb once they’ve made their fortunes.

“You’re giving up a lot of personal info to join”

That’s true, and the reason I won’t join. Dan Bongino is part owner, and he should know better having been a SS agent and all.

Their systems were maxed out I think. It’s working better as of this morning but yesterday it was sluggish at best due to the mass influx of people

Lot of other big conservative names but they don’t seem to post. Just made accounts for future possible use probably.

You can also look at the profile of people you follow and see who they follow. Quick way to find people.

So what's to stop the entire cancel culture class from joining Parler just to mess things up?
