So what's the rules for inviting people here? I run a small weeb chat on TG and would love to post the link to here. Some good people with good interaction. But I don't wanna step on toes and shit. I agree with M0TL. Let's bring them in as long as they don't act up.

My thoughts is Turbo is chasing money, simple as. So from where I am sitting here is what I recall the order of events to be:
-Gabby AI Art Generator is added to Gab after Gab TV shuts down; Torba makes it free to test but 500 image cap a day -Image generation gets brought down to 100 a day and Gabby gets put behind a paywall of Premium (I buy premium at this point because I want to support) -Gabby doesn't get an update in nearly a year and is outpaced by other art generators. Gabby is basically laughable at this point -Gab.AI is launched. You can't link your Gab account to it, and it's a totally separate platform -Gabby gets a huge update and becomes competitive with Stable Diffusion and Dall-E -Gabby is taken off Gab less than a year after premium incentive and put behind a separate paywall on Gab.ai -Image posting is made a premium feature
the dude is seeing dollar signs and can't help himself

This is such a meltdown. It makes me think 1) this isn't him and it's planned destruction, or 2) it's one of the biggest mask-off heel-turns I've ever seen.

So let's say torba undoes this whole media upload policy should we consider the bridge burned whether or not he apologizes? He'll probably reverse policy after about two months. Any earlier and people will demand a refund especially given that he DOUBLED the lifetime membership fee from $500 to $999. I've deleted all my alts on there now - even the one from 2016. So, yeah, I'm not going back.

Time will tell, of course, but I still think I'm right that this is all about the election and getting team grift "christian Nationalists" (like maybe Owens, DeSantis, Albert, Trump) onto Gab. So far he's hit every single point of their "wishlist" when they were shopping around for a platform. I think anyone who stays behind will see Gab become /PTG/ and r/Trump for the next few years. Or, and this is just as likely, he got burned with kiddie porn and now is owned.

I deleted all my posts on Gab and won't be posting there anymore. I'm keeping my account for now, but I'll probably delete it eventually.

Bit the bullet and killed my Gab. Done with that place I think you made the right choice. Even if they reneged, there's no guarantee they won't do it again as soon as they think people will warm up to it. As M0TL said, they're probably trying to cozy up to the mainstream (for big grifting bucks).

little late for this dumbass. Guess he is attempting damage control after seeing everyone bail out.

not sure how true, but it seems worthwhile to follow up on this later

View Attachmentlittle late for this dumbass. Guess he is attempting damage control after seeing everyone bail out. I think it's all too telling that he waited until people left en masse to issue an apology/clarification. He probably expected more people to buckle.
