Parler will be going down for at least one week starting tonight at midnight; AWS has shut their servers down.
Gab can't handle the service load and is talking about buying more servers.
Once Parler goes down, the traffic to Gab will 10x; their servers will crash even harder; as I speak, it's unusable, and there will be NO PLACE for anyone to go except HIVE if they want a platform that supports free speech. I repeat, HIVE will be the only game in town that people can trust to post immutably.
Right now is the single most significant opportunity Hive has ever seen. A social blackout with the world craving a decentralized solution to social networks, they all crave Hive! Well, let's give it to them!
Both of these sites, Parler & Gab, use the archaic web2 model of centralized databases to store their content. They own your accounts and can ban you at any time.
Right now is Hive's time to shine. We need to get Parler and Gab built on Hive. One site the size of Parler would blow this whole thing out of the water, Hive would suddenly make perfect sense, and investors would have a grand narrative and a story to visualize that leads to success.
We have everything any site needs to decentralize. We offer accounts and content to be posted with censorship resistance, immutability, transparency on an open-source, decentralized public blockchain that has withstood the most egregious of attacks.
Hive was born for this moment.
Let us rise and grab this opportunity. Nothing will be given to us. I believe grassroots marketing, word of mouth, is the most aggressive, devasting form of marketing. You've never seen Facebook or Twitter commercials. Word of mouth dominates any other form of marketing by a long mile. When you hear of something from a friend, you're 10x more likely to listen than from a commercial or ad on the internet.

Tips: Leaving comments under popular tweets that are brand new gain a lot more exposure than posting on older tweets. Be on the hunt under the #twittercensorship tag on twitter (and the like) and hunt for new tweets from big accounts complaining about censorship.
