I read somewhere that twitter is #2 and Parler is now #1. They got a LOT of new folks there since they banned Carpe for his memes that are not flattering to dems and Twitter is mostly dems. When they did that...hundreds joined Parler cuz that's where he went. And if you had a linky button thingy, I could Parler the threads here to there, which may get more members here? Just a thought.
Whatever you think of Twitter...they did not ban Carpe for that reason.

Twitter Permanently Bans Pro-Trump Meme Creator Carpe Donktum for Repeated Copyright Violations
Carpe Donktum, a prominent pro-Trump meme maker, was permanently suspended by Twitter over "repeated" copyright-infringement violations.

Twitter’s move to kick Carpe Donktum off the platform Tuesday came just days after a video from the account — tweeted by Trump — was pulled after a copyright complaint from the original video’s owner. The doctored video of a pair of 2-year-olds in New York was faked to appear as if it had aired on CNN, with fake chyrons reading “Terrified Todler [sic] Runs From Racist Baby” and “Racist Baby Probably a Trump Voter.” The father of one of the boys, whose viral video was featured in a CNN story last year, filed a DMCA takedown notice over the Carpe Donktum meme.
In a statement about banning Carpe Donktum, which had more than 270,000 followers, Twitter said, “Per our copyright policy, we respond to valid copyright complaints sent to us by a copyright owner or their authorized representatives. The account was permanently suspended for repeated violations of this policy.”
