Yeah, but the difference here is that nobody follows Biden on Twitter!

Remember how Parler tried to kickstart its growth through conservative following? Remember how that didn’t work out?
Also that slide gave me a chuckle, if anything it shows how little he understands Twitter followings.
EDIT: Oh yeah there’s the other slide where he flat out admits about 60% of people wouldn’t use a Trump backed media platform, whoops,
EDIT EDIT: To put this in perspective, Vimeo has about 60 million accounts. That’s not bad. But only 1 million actually pay for the premium video tools. Vimeo also only gets about 150 million users overall. It’s the largest competitor to YouTube by far.
Rumble exploded last year in users, mostly because they got banned for uploading crazy election bullshit and covid denial shit. Rumble has 32 million accounts, and I’d estimate at least about 10% of that is just YouTube mirrors. It’s a backup service like Vimeo.
YouTube reaches 2 billion people. That’s insane. It exploded in usage around 2014 and hasn’t looked back, around when it was picked up by Google and got to use its algorithms for its own video categorization. YouTube has global media reach. Only 30 million use it’s paid music or premium services. The rest of its money comes from advertising traffic.
Gab and Parler are absolute dwarves, without the advantage Facebook had over MySpace in terms of eventually muscling it’s way into market dominance. Gab has 4 million accounts but 100,000 active users, a decent community but very niche. Parler has its niche and really won’t grow much outside of that right now, but boasts a respectable user count in the range of 10 to 20 million. Problem is that with its absolutely awful security and run ins with other hosting services (apple and Google stores for phones), it’s basically dead. Parler is one of the most successful Twitter alternatives and it’s only 1/10th the size at best, with far fewer active users or non-users seeing advertisements. I don’t see them lasting another four or five years to be honest.
If I’m an investor, I want to see a return on my investments. How the hell is this going to make me money? I see no description of how outside of being publicly traded.
