If Twitter decides to MTG me for speaking too much truth, I will setup an official congressional account on Gab! Link to reply@RepThomasMassie @getongab There's no app for it on smartphones, but Gab is the best free speech platform so far. @m1sscynical @getongab Works on my iPhone. Link to reply@RepThomasMassie @getongab Do you access it from a browser/the website? When I go to the App Store, I don't see an app for Gab. I've only been able to use it from a browser. @m1sscynical @getongab It works as if it's an app. I have an icon on my phone. I click on it, and I'm in an environment that doesn't look like a browser. It wasn't obvious how to set it up at first. Now I don't launch a browser, I just click the icon. Link to reply@RepThomasMassie @getongab What about GETTR? Is that you in there or a test account? It is not verified. @gregcrum01 @getongab I'm not on GETTR.”
