• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Gab/Telegram/GETTR/etc

Telegram seems to be superior in terms of security and how sources are all aggregated if you follow the right channels.

I have GETTR. Kinda unimpressed so far. Waiting for Truth to come out and see how it is.

This place is special though, its the type of mom & pops shit I'll support until I die. Could eventually be huge

Yeah, I have no plans to leave here. I don't see this as a rival to Twitter though personally. The platforms aren't really similar.

I prefer message boards anyway. But if something is going to take down twitter, I want to support it.

I have a Gab account that I check periodically. I probably don't use it enough to have a strong opinion about it.
 
Shows how much I know about that one. Checked it out once a while back and the platform was annoying to me so I haven't been back.
It is weird at first. If you subscribe to a news channel, it’s like getting a one way text message from them, but you don’t message them back

I see us being much more like Barstool than some kind of social media development. Barstool started online in 2007 and it took them 10 years to really get a viable audience.

We have had 17,000 views on our YouTube channel in the last 28 days.

And as we grow, we can start hiring people to create media for us based on our principles that established the site
 
I dropped Twitter a year or so ago (which sucks, because it's the quickest way to get news). I had an issue supporting something that tries to suppress dissenting thought.

I'm here, Rivals homeboard, and Facebook. I hate the fuck out of Facebook, but I use it for work so it's a semi-necessity.
