I think with Apple threatening to ban Parler, they may just make a HUGE mistake.
Apple can ban it. Sure.
But Google cannot prevent people from downloading the app to their phones.
75,000,000 Americans may be looking for an alternative to Twitter now.
Today.

I have a prepaid, old-fashioned flip phone that also costs about $100 a year. I have it mostly for emergencies.
My Iphone will be in the garbage.

“on’t go with Samsung, they will soon block. I suggest Motorola phones.”
Motorola is owned by the ChiCOMs.With it come the risk that all your data is going there as well.
I have Blackberry Android. I know BB is a little different from Samsung, etc. I don’t know how it will handle things. I guess I don’t care since I don’t do social media on my cell. Had been considering Parler.
True. Never do anything that is financial etc. Just mainly for Telegram, Parler, and soon to be other verboten apps deemed dangerous by our billionaire oligarch overlords.
That is the Puris Librem5 Phone.
Why would Samsung block?
I think they are a very good alternative.
My only reason for thinking that is they are part of the Oligarchy.
Apple has never entered into censorship that I have ever heard.

Apple Just Permanently Banned Infowars' App From The App Store
Gab, the Alt-Right's Favorite Social Network, Gets Rejections From Apple, Twitter
Maybe.
I think they are not controlled by the same group as Apple.
They are serious competitors. And not Chinese...
Just downloaded Parler on my IPhone. If Apple doesn’t support it, I will access the Internet. FU Apple! Anyone using Twitter please cancel culture them ASAP.
I like and have stuck with LG.

At least a helf dozen Linux phone/tablet OS’s out there...do a “Duck Duck Go” search on “Linux open source cellular phone OS” or similar.
What is the reason Google gave to ban it????
When Apple kicked Infowars to the curb, the Infowars app kept working. You could no longer install the app.
If Parler’s hosting provider shuts them down, game over. Gab has already gone through hosting providers kicking them to the curb a couple of times.
Thanl you.. I was searching through all of my bookmarks looking for that! (couldn’t remember the name of it).
A little on the high-end cost-wise, but I am looking harder at it now.
Why anyone buys pricy Apple iPhones?
My $40 ZTE phone bought 5 years ago can do everything I need including photo’s and text.
Recently, they have been hard-encoding (built in the hardware)Knox Security. You CANNOT root the phone (especially Samsung S9 through S20).
I have an S10, and was really ticked off that I could not ROOT. While they are top of the line brand, I am not going to purchase another Samsung because of that.
(I loved my Sony Xperia Z4, but can’t find anything similar now that I am back in the USA)
Will not being able to ROOT shut off access to other sources to upload.
Such as for Parler?
