Former President Donald Trump's top aide Jason Miller has launched a new social media platform, GETTR. 

Miller recently left his post as Trump's spokesman to launch GETTR, Politico reported on Thursday. He was replaced by former Republican National Committee press secretary Liz Harrington. 

Quote

GETTR very strongly resembles Twitter in format, with trending topics, verified users, and the ability to reshare and like posts.

"These big tech oligarchs try to dominate and control what people think," Miller said during a live video stream Thursday morning in which he explained the app.

Quote

“Our goal, as you will be seeing very shortly with the new platform, is to really have a marketplace of ideas, a place where you know you can go and express your political beliefs, your personal beliefs, and you are not going to be canceled, you are not going to be de-platformed, you are not going to have some government entity or some big tech entity say you are not allowed to believe that anymore, you are going to talk about what you want to believe in,” Miller said during the broadcast.

Actually looks a little more polished than Parler or whatever.

Telling me that Redneck comedian doesn’t have that phrase trademarked?

or is he all in?

I'm an idiot (no shit), saw the thread title and thought that was the actual name of the site.

Just taking a quick look under the hood, it's built using:

  • Google Apps for Business
  • Cloudflare, one of the largest CDN/firewall services in the world, run by folks in the liberal paradise of San Francisco
  • React Javascript libraries, which is maintained/hosted by Facebook
  • Hosted on AWS EC2 Infrastructure.

So he's using software from Google, libraries hosted/maintained by Facebook, and the site is hosted on Amazon's web services.

But it's "independent" from "Big Tech", and it has "superior technology" that 75% of the fucking internet uses.

did you really think they had the funds or resources to create a whole new platform on their own?

That comedian that plays that character isn't a redneck, so I'm sure he wants no association whatsoever with this shit.

Though, he's gotta respect the grifting rednecks out of money skills. Game recognizes game.

I want to get a GETTR account and every few days post about how it's hosted by Amazon, uses Google's services, and uses (admittedly open-source) software hosted by Facebook.

How long would such an account last in a "cancel-free" zone?

When you click on the headline news stories in the sidebar, it takes you to hashtags that, while they maybe topical, the actual gets or whatever the fuck they are called, have nothing to do with the headline.

And the headlines are lifted straight from various liberal news sites.

Makes me think it's some intern or somebody on FIVERR that's just copying headlines into a widget, and linking it to a hashtag.

No way to tell if that really is fat dotard himself, but with 15 contributions in just a few hours, seems that it could be. 

Doubt it.  Sounds like him, but no checkmark on the account (like Newsmax LOL), and he already said no according to Bloomberg

I find it hilarious that he can't get some IT folks to gin up his own social media site.  Maybe everybody is demanding payment up front.

This AND he's demanding all the profits for himself.

Amazing.

Daniel Whitney, aka Larry the Cable Guy, does in fact have numerous federal trademark registrations, for all kinds of goods and services, for "Git-R-Done."  I'm sure at least one of them includes entertainment services or online something or other that would form a basis for accusing this of infringement.

However, the USPTO did register two marks for "Get R Done" things while his were subsisting.  Maybe it was the goods and services.  Hard to tell.  It's also complicated by the fact that Git-R-Done is just a variation of the highly descriptive "get her done," so it's probably not all that strong a trademark.

Nonetheless, it might be a stretch to get GETTR with Git-R-Done.

Would be cool if these corporations, one at a time, pulled the plug on them and posted that if you don’t like big tech don’t use us.  Then as they scramble and get running again, the next one does it.

Not going anywhere near this platform, but a user name “WitchHunt” could post some fun legal news updates @Dotard

This isn't working as intended?  10 pages of this:

Goddammit, I thought you were really offering this action, and I was going to cash out my 401k to bet on the under.

Fuck…my lip keeps getting chewed up from moments where I have to bite it, to avoid laughing late at night and waking up my wife, due to Shaggy/Surly moments that’d just take too long to explain before getting told ‘that’s fuckin stupid, go sleep on the couch’. 
 

Fuck you guys.

Are they asking for your ssn to confirm your identity for a blue check, like parler?  Member parler?  Member the mass exodus from fb to parler to bring down fb from lack of traffic?

The good news: most of those people (the ones I knew) haven't returned.  Don't know what happened to them.  Don't care, either.
