Orgs with the stated purporse of helping users connect and share media (information) with other users. Orgs with the stated purporse of helping users connect and share media (information) with other users; user-generated content (text, posts, photos, videos), to enable free speech. Because of young woke idiotsin Silicon Valley, they divided the nation (world), by deciding to become the thought police, and censor uncomfortable truths (act as front for the DNC). ℹ️ Info           ~ Aristotle Sabouni Created: 2019-06-13

Social Media • [21 items]

BitChute
File:Bitchute Image.svg Bitchute is a UK based P2P (Torrent front-end) alternative to YouTube video sharing, created in 2017. A lot of conservative/right folks cross-post to BitChute, in case they are blocked by the crypto-fascists at Google/YouTube. This insurance worked well for a few that were banned or demonetized for reasons unknown or imagined.

Brighteon
Real.Video became Brighteon.com an alternative YouTube. Because people use them to host historically factual but offensive things (like the Christchurch shooting video), they were threatened with de-platforming, so are working on alternatives to reduce that in the future. But for now, they often cave to through censors.

Diaspora
Self-hosted Social Network founded in 2010 (funded via crowd funding / a Kickstarter campaign) in response to Facebook user spying. Diaspora is Greek for scattered (as in dispersed population), which fits their distributed model of self hosting.

Facebook
I want a social network that gives me control of what I see and share. Zuckerberg thinks ruthlessly stumbling on to lucky timing is the same thing as being really smart, and the world would be a better place if he ran it. Dunning-Kruger gets inflated by narcism and being surrounded by yes-men. Then he got political, and made him an enemy of Democracy.

Full30
YouTube for Gunners (since Google/YouTube-Fascists don't believe in 2A or civil liberties). Their contact and information is on a footer that you can't click on because it keeps auto-loading more content and moving it away when you try to click it.

Gab
Gab is a free-speech alternative to Twitter, launched in 2016. Social networks are the sum of it's participants. Gab has lots of disenfranchized -- so some great, some quality drops. Because Apple opposes Free Speech there's no iOS App, though you can use their web interface at gab.com.

GoWild
Instagram for the firearm friendly outdoorsman, with a few bloggy features. Mobile-only.

Google
In 1995, two 20-something Ph.D. students from Stanford were looking for something to do their dissertations on, and decided that they should focus on a Web crawler. They found funding, a revenue stream based on advertising, and became a Unicorn (a multi-billion dollar company). Their saga from College Dormitory Culture to anti-American Corporate hate-Cult began.

Instagram
Facebook bought Instagram, so what Instagram does, reflects on Facebook. And Instagram withholds likes from people, to get them to post more often, and is a known partisan outlet.

LBRY
LBRY is a secure content sharing and publishing platform (using blockchain) that is decentralized and owned by its users. That means it should get around most oppressive restrictions on content. It's also a micropayment system where you can buy/share content and charge for information/data. It's being used partly as an alternative YouTube.

Mastadon
Self-hosted Social Network (Twitter/Tumblr) started in 2016 to combat Facebook or Tumblr de-platforming/censorship.

Mastodon
An OpenSource Twitter competitor that far-left "Journalists" fled to, when Musk brought Twitter back to it's original charter (being communications for everyone, not just far leftists). The Nanny-State Hall Monitors started reporting on each other, and blocking themselves and the posts, in a comedy of errors.

MeWe
When Zuckerberg called privacy a “social norm of the past” (circa 2012), Mark Weinstein created MeWe: a privacy-centric alternative to Facebook. There are a fair amount of people looking for Social Media that doesn't require you buy into Zuckerberg's crypto-fascism.

Nextdoor
Thought geo-local, no-anonymity, and dictatorial moderation would make a different type of Social Media platform. And it might, if it wasn't run by leftist asshats from SF. As it is, just a bunch of wokescolds censoring and irritating people in most markets. The false civility and double standards of leftist PC thought-police who couldn't make it at Twitter.

Parler
Pronounced “par-lay” (not parlor) was set up in 2018 as another free speech alternative to Twitter. As Twitter became a more fascist collective, Parler started growing massively. Then Twitter banned Trump and Conservatives Digital Kristallnacht, under the false premise of "insurrection", and in a coordinated attack, tried to destroy Parler as well.

Pinterest
An image (and small video) sharing based social media company, launched in 2010 (went public in 2019). Users can upload, save, sort, and manage images (known as pins), and organize them in collections (known as boards). It has a few hundred million monthly active users.

Rumble
Online video platform and cloud services business. Rumble is YouTube with competent executives; the best alternative to YouTube out there. They also host Truth Social and other infrastructure that doesn't trust fascist left organizations like Amazons AWS, Google Cloud, or Microsoft's Azure (ordered by intolerance).

Telegram
This started in 2013 as a Facebook free version of WhatsApp, for those who trust some Russian guy making his own security protocols more than Zuckerberg. But it's evolved into more a micro-blogging service than just point-to-point communications (broadcast channels, group chats, bots, etc). With 200M users (2019) it has a following.

TikTok
A Chinese-owned version of VideoTwitter -- where you can upload short videos (3-60 looping videos). Highly popular, and created with Chinese Government sponsorship and regulatory rules, it has been called a "national security threat to the West", especially amongst armed services personnel because it can convey location, image and biometric data to its Chinese parent.

Twitter
It's not that Twitter lacks intellectual diversity (and is 99.7%+ Democrats, based on political donations), or that they censor conservative truths that are too hard for them to debate. It's that they lied about it, and pretended there was no shadow campaign or bias. Hopefully Elon Musks acquisition will help with that.

YouTube
YouTube (a division of Google) has a specially abusive place when it comes to the world of selective censorship - that only seems to apply to truths liberals hate to hear.
