He tells how you need to give them a selfie and a drivers license scan in order to direct message.

Then we have the obvious:
"Are millions of Conservatives being led into a new Conservative ghetto from which they will become completely invisible to the outside world?"
"It's brilliant if this was an actual strategy. Get the Conservatives to SILENCE themselves outside a bubble to promote 'free speech'."
"We retreat in the culture war into a silo where we all talk to people who already agree with us."
"Any Conservatives who retreated behind the Parler login wall and abandoned their accounts on this platform is now invisible for the upcoming election."
Sam, what would not "allow(ing) yourself to be run off the Twitter platform?" look like?
I think it goes beyond that.
What in the user agreement put you off?
Not that I eschew it altogether. After all, here I am. But my eye is wary and my soul is weary.
But in doing so, they spread his message to millions of other people to see his posts. It’s not his posts directly but the shares, follows, comments, etc. that make them go viral to many more people.
And they also post on Facebook - and all of those leftists who go on there commenting are posting that to all of their own friends, in effect advertising the message.
True. Verification is for those who need to protect their account and Twitter does much the same.
I was banned off twitter and had to give a phone number to get back on. So giving a phone number to parley was no big deal. Parley did not ask for DL or photo.
Its time we stopped supporting these companies that give money to the evil in the world. They are salivating at our destruction. And we are helping them with our business. We will lose if this behavior does not end.
My wife just joined, no problems. I’ve been a member for eight months:No problems no Picture required. I don’t know which Perlar you are talking about
All of the above, especially the last paragraph. And until the news sites start putting a little “P” symbol, or something like the “F” or Bird symbol to make it easy to comment on the article, IMO, it’s not going to go anywhere.
That’s a good question. I use an ad blocker on most sites, and rarely see any. The problem with most sites today though is if you want access to their content, you have to turn it off...and I only do that for conservative news sites.
I have been on Parler for some time now and have NEVER been asked for a drivers license or ANY such thing you are stating here!!
/bingo
I joined it months ago although I don’t use it.
I added more followings last week but really got dissuaded from hanging out. I too use Firefox, agree, I have no idea why Parlor doesn’t trigger the “store password prompt” that every other website does.
Wanting a Conservative online area is something I can understand but if this one doesn’t catch on I will not be surprised. I don’t know if I even like the idea of separate but equal instead of internet conversation across the spectrum. There’s something sterile about the idea.
I have no ax to grind just reflecting my current thoughts.
I tried to develop a social.Quadverum habit too, didn’t work out.
"STOP POSTING LINKS TO TWITTER!!! JUST POST SCREENSHOTS OF WHAT YOU WANT TO SHARE. LINKS GIVE THEM $$$. ECHO TO GET THIS MESSAGE OUT!"
Sorry for the caps, but that's the way it was posted there.
Havent read through the thread yet, and definitely will, but my hesitation on joining is they want a cell phone number. No thank you. Off to read on, and see what else I learn.
I tried to sign up for Parler....then they asked for my phone number....NO ONE GETS MY PHONE NUMBER!!!
They do not want cell phone. At that screen on the left you have a no thank tou option
no once you hit 2500 followers the rules change.
I feel sorry for the poor guy that has my local area code + 555-1212
