Discern Report is the fastest growing America First news aggregator in the nation.
After a month of suffering under the purging effects of Apple, Google, and Amazon canceling them, social media app Parler has finally returned on a new server and with a new acting CEO in Mark Meckler. But the CEO of their top conservative competitor, Gab, had some thoughts on their revival. According to Just The News:
Parler, the upstart social media platform silenced last month by big-tech censorship, said Monday it is resuming operations under new leadership and with new computer servers.
Parler moved to a new computer server farm, and the 20 million users on the platform when Amazon Web Services shut off the social media platform on Jan. 11 can begin using their old app and logins Monday, Interim CEO Mark Meckler told Just the News.
Some existing users were already live on Monday morning and the rest should have access by midday after the new servers propagated across the internet. New users should be able to sign up for the service within a week or so, Meckler said.
“We are off of the big tech platform, so that we can consider ourselves safe and secure for the future,” Meckler said in an interview.
Andrew Torba, founder and CEO of Gab, took to his own platform to “congratulate” Parler on finally coming back from the dead. In doing so, he noted that the money funding the operation comes from Rebekah Mercer, a GOP Establishment megadonor and matriarch of the powerful political family. Torba also reminded everyone that despite having many conservatives on the platform, Parler is still a darling of the Republican Establishment that has shunned Gab for being too controversial.
“Good to hear that Parler will be back online today after an entire month of being down! Now the Mercers and their billion dollars combined with the entire establishment right grift machine can compete against grassroots Gab and The People on an even tech playing field,” he posted.
The purge of conservative accounts on Twitter and Facebook starting on January 7th, which included the permanent suspension of President Trump as well as NOQ Report, launched an exodus from the platforms. Parler and Gab were leading the way by picking up a massive amount of new users, but Parler suffered from their own purge. Google and Apple kicked them off their mobile app stores pending changes to their censorship rules and Amazon Web Services booted them from their hosting. Gab was removed by Google years ago and was never on Apple. They’ve been using their own servers for some time.
As more Americans seek freer speech on social media, Gab and Parler both promise to lead the charge. Will Parler be able to make up for their hiatus or will Gab continue to be the most viable alternative to Twitter?
COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.
Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 11,000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
