The kind of people that thinks The Daily Stormer is run by Mossad and that Antifa and Nazis should ally against the system in the name of Lucifer.
Hey, it could work.
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

He mentioned Minds. Minds is pretty good, but there's like no one there.By banning Gab's Dissenter, Mozilla had probably created a Streisand effect.
On the other hand if it's actually going to connect to other instances it'll be hilarious to watch the fediverse crowd lose it as the people they hate show up. Expect Gab to be on the list of every instances "blacklist" as some get so paranoid they use whitelists.
Basing their social network on a federated platform and not being part of the fediverse is like having a email account that can only can messages to other people on the same domain.Gab has confirmed that they are in fact switching the main site over to using a modified version of Mastodon's codebase. The big thing is that they're going to be tacking things onto Mastodon as well and open sourcing it.

Torba himself has commented on a few things, but first a cow crossover with a guy who freaked out at the farms.

On third party clients and the new features:

On federating, there will be no "fediverse" feed like Mastodon/Pleroma offer and it's obvious why:

On Mastodon's dev being pro censorship:

I'll update this if any more interesting questions are asked.
One day later update:
Someone who knows their shit explains why Andrew Torba might have issues in classic Torba fashion. Ruby on Rails (what mastodon uses) had scaling issues for Twitter. On the other hand Mastodon does have some huge instances that have sizes comparable to Gab (such as Pawoo).

As you can expect with services that have had codebase switches or upgrades with features missing, users are asking "hey is this old feature I like gonna be there?"

Some are skeptical and feel that Apple/Google (or woke activists) will demand Mastodon clients block instances.

More people are asking the "will it federate" question:

I'm really looking forward to the boomers on Gab getting a taste of the fediverse. Mastodon is one thing but the other instances that run on pleroma or GNUsocial are hardcore weird.Basing their social network on a federated platform and not being part of the fediverse is like having a email account that can only can messages to other people on the same domain.
Torba has become obsessed with the idea of "forking" open source projects. By that I mean he takes their code and slaps his own shitty logo on them. Gab and Dissenter are such poorly designed sites that after millions of dollars, endless ebegging, and several years of work, still run like complete shit.I can't figure why Torba and this Colbert guy are trying to jump platforms to something based on the Fediverse.
The majority of Mastodon instances are full of leftist trannies and furfags who are just going to block Gab for wrongthink. The Pleroma instances are mainly right-wing anime nerds posting loli and some trolls who are ex-Gab users who hate Torba... Gab will block these to avoid getting goatse'ed or spammed with trap porn. The only Fediverse instance I have seen with a userbase compatible with Gab is Thomas Wictor's social.quodverum.com, with a bunch of pro-Trump boomers, just like Gab... probably some of the same people on both platforms already.
They might get to leverage iOS and Android clients if the app stores and/or developers don't block their instance.
Otherwise I guess they are just abandoning their crappy code base they've botched up over time.
Gee.....who could have guessed Torba would completely fuck up his new Brave Fork? Honestly the guy has to be one of the biggest fuckwits on the internet.

And if it is your Orwellian overlords, the stopped clock theory strikes again!as of today's date, Gab is no longer accessible in the UK
I don't know if this is our Orwellian overlords deciding we're better off without access to it or fuckups on behalf of those running it but this thread has me tending towards the latter
