The new social media network, Gab, promises its users almost total freedom of speech

The new social media network, Gab, promises its users almost total freedom of speech

Gab.ai is just over three weeks old with:

☕ 12,000 users,
☕ another 42,000 on its waitlist,
☕ 2.7 million pageviews on 240,000 posts,
☕ people spending an average of 12 minutes on the site each time they log in.

https://gab.ai/

It's built on an asymmetric follow model (I follow you, you don't have to follow me), and people can upvote or downvote the posts they see from people they follow in a central feed. Posts with the most upvotes are collected in a popular tab within Gab.

The premise of Gab? Strict freedom of speech policies.

Is it the next Ello or Peach, networks that have created a lot of initial buzz, but never really lived up to becoming alternatives to the big, established platforms? Give it a month, then we'll see. ;)
