Parler is a great idea but it’s a mess to look at. I gave up on it too.

Same exact thing happened to me on Parler.

Parler is difficult to get used to...
FreeRepublic is a great source of news... it is wonderful.

It’s kind of interesting for me. When I’m working from home I spend more time on social media. At least I did at first. When I get off the computer for “work”, I’m done. I got rid of facebook a couple of years ago on my phone so that’s not even tempting me.

I just have better things to do, even during the pandemic because I’m finishing the interior of my garage/mancave sheet metal building now. And then I need to grade my driveway, cut firewood, clean the property, etc.

I only really do the social media when I’m bored and shackled to a computer.

I suspect that since Parler has a conservative lean, they are under non stop attack.

The sudden growth and addition of millions of new members has pretty much hosed the whole thing. I was unable to sign in for about three weeks, and was only able to yesterday.

I do agree that it is not a user-friendly site and “a mess to look at.”

I’m also frosted by their 1,000 character (not word) limit.

Clearly, the second character from the right is a backward capital L. How do you not see that?

I gave up on it when it asked for a phone number. I’m not giving any personal information.

I’d like to see the Federation of Dyslexic Internet Users sue the makers of Captchas for discrimination against the handicapped.

Run for office, you’ll have a whole lot of people wanting to talk with you.
I don’t do fb or parler or any similar. I can’t even keep up with FR most days.
The computer was not invented to raise your bp. Look into ham radio. It’s fun.

Goodby and good riddance to these moronic social sites.

Consider yourself lucky citizen.

I could never get 'verified'.

There is A LOT of garbage, Follow ME! and porn posts.

Pres Trump never moved from Twitter so what does get posted to Parler is second hand.

Trying to follow someone like Trump's Press Sec results in hours old posts about watch me on Hannity or pictures of her baby...

There are tons of 'echos'.

It appears that most people are there just trying to collect followers to their podcast, videos or trying to raise money.

FR is still the best place to get current news and there's no BS cluttering it up.

JEEZE they are having growing pains give them a break, Devin Nunez has been fighting for us for FOUR years I think you can spend a little time fighting to sign up to Parler Devin and Dan Bongino are having HUGE growing pains which is a very good thing people are fleeing twitter!!! Have some patience AND try signing up late at night when traffics isn’t as high!! I signed up a year ago and it was easy peasy!!!

I had no problem registering with Parler. My issue is the way it’s formatted and the way it functions. If you echo a post it takes you back to the top of the page and then you have to search for the place where you left off.
And, recently, nothing I posted on the site appeared on the site despite a popup window stating a successful post.
So, I stopped going to the site.

Wait a minute - are you saying that a double “U” looks like a “double U”?
