they don't want hate-mobs
but in the short time, I'm not too sure
they'll lose money in the long run and revert
or they'll die off 😄
what do you guys think of the banning of Gab?
There is almost no freemarket though. Since half a dozen companies control everything.
i saw that coming from a mile away
Banning it is wrong.
they even stole their domain
Gabs market is their issue
if I heard correctly
Gab will innovate I hope.
To get around this bullying.
I think Gab is shit, specially on the tech side. But I'm now kinda siding with them after what they did to them
Yes, its a free speech platform for all,
But if other platforms ban criminals/nazis/trolls/hatemongers etc
They'll automatically be drawn to the one that doesnt, and you'll get a permanent stain on your label
Cuz even if the people of gab don't like those people, they have to be allowed on for Gabs mission statement
and their competitors will gladly get rid of them for that
i mean it IS the issue
"If you don't like twitter, start your own twitter"
and when peopel do, it gets banned
so you can't have a free market
the problem is that if you embrace free speech, they will ALL, as a collective, label them as criminals/nazis/trolls/hatemongers
yes
thats what i said
you'll just get stained
If the first amendment if extended to the internet that might fix it?
this kinda makes me think we need some platforms that are more underground
For the US anyway
and to become bigger gradually
to the point of being too big to shutdown at that point
They will all be called nazi sites/groups if they are found out though @.B
they can't do it if they have millions of users
the narrative doesn't stand
I'm a dev, I'm tempted to start one tbh
A streaming site? or something else?
probably without streaming at first. There's no way to create a streaming site that is profitable
nowadays at least
they have some interesting documents up btw

That's the problem with being open to anyone, yiu will end full of weirdos that no one else wants. Just ask the furries :D
> There's no way to create a streaming site that is profitable

bittorrent had a peer to peer live streaming protocol that they scuttled when they failed to raise money
that p2p approach would reduce serving costs to the point that a streaming site could work
