With people moving to Parler, it'd be nice to see what is going on, but I don't want to give out a phone number.
I see I can access an account by URL, but cannot see a search or anything.

From everything I've read, no. I tried a while back to use a IP based number even (Google, nonetheless) and it wouldn't even work. They are really stuck on getting a mobile number.
For now I've settled that I'm not going to try to replace social media that irritated with other social media that will irritate me. I do wish they'd give an option for an e-mail address instead.
You can easily create one with a fake temp mobile number. Maybe it's different through the mobile app, but on PC, it didn't even send me an SMS verification.
They don't want twitter's bot problem.
Based Razorfist.
I recommend sticking to gab. The owner's opinions on porn aside, at least you can tell gab is a genuine homegrown attempt at a twitter alternative. Parler reeks of controlled opposition, especially now.
Snark Reply People?
The Trump-addicted TDS retards? Like the fake doctor guy or something?
Yep. Because apparently these people have nothing better to do all day than stalk people on social media. It really is their only hobby I suppose.
Actually, off topic but 100% serious: Do these lefties even HAVE hobbies? Video games are problematic, the majority of movies are problematic (and the ones they think arent died on the vine because no one else wants to see them), comics are problematic, anime is problematic, the list goes on. What do these deranged mofos even DO with their free time? I guess it would explain why they are in a perpetual state of misery (even though most of them are trust funders with money to throw at anything they want).
Do normalfags have hobbiea?
WuFlu have told us, no, all they do is gossip and trendfollow. That's their hobby.
Well, considering I have seen the bowling alleys still full, and the mayor keeps losing her shit over the bars in downtown having too many people in them, I would imagine people are still doing their normal thing.
Also, at least at my work, a lot of guys my age or a little older are into Animu and Vidya, and even though they are completely uninvolved with the culture war, they still have the same sort of likes/dislikes you expect (IE: They all like Cyberpunk while admitting its buggy. They all like the Mandalorian infinitely more than the main SW movies. They like anime for the outrageous action and hot waifus. Etc.) So apparently the WuFlu is wrong.
I saw a >journolist's article who completely lost her shit with nothing to do in the WuFlu, so I based it on that.
At least replies are hidden by default on parler so you don't have to see them if you don't want to
It requires a phone number to sign up. You might have some luck with a VOIP number via some website or app, but I've read that many have not.
I only have a Twitter account from when they didn't require a phone number, and it was only to occasionally follow Norm McDonald's ramblings; it has zero posts, just like my Reddit account.
Amazon is going to pull the plug on them.
