Exactly, these people don't want to put in the work. They just want to use shortcuts, but just as you're not entitled to an account Twitter, you're also not entitled to a cloud service provider.
Parler hasn't seen 1/10th the the deplatforming that The Pirate Bay has seen for example, yet that managed to survive throughout the years and is still up now. The reality is that whoever was running Parler had no clue what they were doing.
Its more that nothing they do can overcome the fact that everyone has blacklisted them. You can't run a site on the internet without having ISPs and DNS registers on your side at least. Even if they rehost somewhere else they will just be hit with the next level of blocks and have wasted the money rehosting.
Who says it is the end of the story for Parler? They came on the scene many years after Twitter and Facebook. They have a lot of catching up to do, with a lot less money at their disposal. In the early days, Twitter ran on Ruby on Rails, hardly a scalable decision, either.
what a ridiculous comment. it was a crowd of some of the dumbest people alive - some attempting to kidnap, injure, and kill lawmakers, some thinking that by entering the building they'd find an OVERTHROW GOVT button. Idiots.
anyone that tries to both sides this shit deserves eternal shame
I personally just want a social network were I don't have to worry about being banned every minute. (Not sure if PArler qualifies, but I suppose it is their selling point).
Depends how much time it will take them to be back up again : if it takes too long, most of their potential users will have moved on, for instance to Gab.
