Thanks, but no way.

Saiditors might be mean, but they're not nearly as gullible and dumb as gab users, IMHO.

i think you've got some good poitns. but unless you get it across the isle it's basically, well, essentially no more than an echo chamber.

based on the parler ban, i suppose gab users are going to listen more to your points, that is, assuming you're left leaning.

are gab users stubborn in your opinion? cause if ppl are just dumb, there are ways to persuade them. unless someone as smart as you have already done it and they keep a vigilent watch on anyone else to do the same thing. but if dumb ppl are stubborn as well, then i'd stay away from them. (unless i can use their highly predictable way of acting to my advantage, that is.)

I see your points, but I think I am getting plenty information from the right and alt right on Saidit, and would not want to overdo it (for my own sanity). For example, there was a study years ago of groups watghing Fox News, and groups not watching that Fox, so that the IQ scores were tested before and after watching the two different kinds of news. Those who watched Fox had lower IQ scored after a period of a few weeks. I wish I could find the link to this. If I can find it, I'll return and post it here.

I also think that many Saiditors are not as extreme as those on gab. But the real benefit of Saidit - over Reddit, Gab, and other websites - is that it's small enough for discussions and debates, in a manner that one cannot engage at the other sites.
