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

Major dittos to that!

i have trouble with captcha on all sites...even the ones where you pick squares that have things

If anyone is familiar with Vietnamese language..is this how your pronounce Air Force or are they just getting it wrong while showing off the shoes

I had no problems signing up for Parler or the Captchas.

The only thing I didn’t like is the foul mouthed leftests.

BUT...Parler had both mute and block buttons. So I just mute them.

I have suffered similar experiences using Parley.

Sometimes I can login, and sometimes the login process freezes at the user/password screen.

So, I give up and try again later.

My Android phone has not trouble logging in — don’t do anything but start the App, and I’m in !! (NO security there!).

I have complained several times via the support@parley.com email address at the bottom of their homepage, but NEVER have received a response.

Their window of opportunity to become the conservative alternative to Facebook will only last so long.

I’m already looking for a better alternative.

What do you recommend?

Can’t really tell if that F on the end is meant to be a capital or lowercase.

Oddly enough it does not require you to match lower case letters. Just do it all in uppercase and it works.

Depends on the font. The F looks a little like Lucida Handwriting Font to me. That is why they subscript the lower case, to remove the confusion over the crazy way they show characters in those stupid things.

Have you looked into online community forums? Like phpbb (build your own, you’re the admin). Or Mybb. I believe they’re free. And there’s vBulletin.
They get as serious and thoughtful as you want them to be, and as far as I know, you’re not going to be monitored by anyone.

Like my mother use to say: "You kids stay out of the parlor parler... Play in your rooms or go outside..."

NO, if you go check what they do. They have lower case a’s as big as the uppercase A’s

they have upper case Q’s.as small as lower case q’s

The size of the character in captchas are always large or small. The size matters not. I know, I buy many things online and I am very familiar with captchas and their proclivities.

I have programed this crap. It is their stupid software.

“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.”

I have occasionally had that happen on FR, but fortunately not often.

My wife just told me about magabook.com.

I just signed up, and I am already in. So try it. I'll know eventually how good it is, but signed up with out a glitch.

For the name alone I'll give it a try.

You nailed it. I quit for the exact. same. reason.

Their 2-step is the most inept I have ever seen on any major social media site. The search, either from inside or outside, is unacceptably bad.

Look at the line going through the f, that makes it lower case. If it were an uppercase F, the line would stop and not go through. Size of the character matters not, because there are lower case a’s that are as larger and sometimes larger than uppercase A’s in the same captcha

Tried that and it still did not work, but you are correct, most do not distinguish, but a lot of them these days do.

I have ran across both cases

Interesting. So are those the name of the sites?
