I'm having trouble finding your account. I do a search and nothing comes up. Does anyone have a work-around for this?

The search function seems to be knackered, can't actually find anyone by name, just searches the actual text you tweet
Try it again, search "irishdoesasia" should work now
Gotcha.
Got Roosh, Ghost Tiger, GMac and Quintus Curtius too.

After two years on Twitter, I have deleted my account. I can still read specific people there just by entering their Twitter URL in the browser (which is how I started using Twitter in the first place). Since I used my real name there, there was little I could safely like, post or retweet beyond totally generic stuff, and I just got tired of worrying about that. I followed almost anyone I wanted to follow but that was feeling riskier and riskier.
When I opened my GAB account, I decided to go with an anonymous username and account name. My photo is somewhat recognizable if you know me but just barely. At this point I'm more interested in hearing the conversation than in participating, so I'll probably use GAB mostly as an aggregator rather than as a Facebook substitute.

Does anyone know if gab.ai has a messaging capability, like Twitter? Can't seem to find any. If anyone knows more, please let me know.

Not yet. Gab is still in Beta. Andrew is still working to fund the development of new features.

@samseau it's a basic CYA (cover your ass) type statement. Don't over-think it.

Another example of any service that relies on advertising to users as its source of revenue will ultimately be influenced by them. No advertiser wants to risk bad press, hence these rules.

On there already. Minor complaint is at least with Twitter there's the chain/group reply feature.

The UN clause is no longer in Gab.ai's terms. Gab is the safest platform currently.
Contributor at Return of Kings. I got banned from twatter, which is run by little bitches and weaklings. You can

I just watched the interview between Cernovich and Torba. Started out ok, but once he started talking about registries and ICANN it became embarrassingly retarded - he knows nothing. He should have done a modicum of research before going public with this nonsense.
If he really knows the score and still repeats the falsehoods he's claiming just for a good story, that's even worse. People like this make the entire dissent look like tin foil hat wearing kooks.

Kind of both though. How many businesses are really going to risk advertising on a site with no/minimal filter and full of trolls? Even your average small conservative christian business isn't going to want their name associated with this.

Gab was successfully able to transfer their domain out from Godaddy to Uniregistrar before GoDaddy could steal it.
I looked into Twitter-like blockchain/crypto developments and found a few including Memo.Cash which is built onto of the existing Bitcoin Cash blockchain. All of them have very tiny users bases.
If I don't find something promising I'm thinking about throwing together a new blockchain that is like Twitter/Gab.
