Tough times create strong men

Check out this poll from last week:
Folks interested in the #paralleleconomy
Question: What do you care about most?
- 12% said the politics behind it.
- 18% said how people can protect privacy/data.
- 47% said the opportunity it creates for entrepreneurs!
I love that.
The movement has evolved from a way to protect oneself from big tech, into a real opportunity for progress + innovation.
I hope this encourages more entrepreneurs to take their talents to alternative platforms. Sounds more fun and exhilarating anyways!
For example:
- Why move to CA when you can join Ben Shapiro in NASH.
- Why become a famous YouTuber, when you can be a Rumble pioneer.
- Why try heavily saturated Twitter, when Gab is for the taking.
- Why pursue Silicon Valley, when you can get money elsewhere.
Entrepreneurs are paving a way for alternative tech.
It's such a great opportunity, that more content creators + businesses should look for their new homes in places in alt-tech that isn't heavily populated...
... yet.
That's what I am doing on Gab, with amazing results already.
This has been my experience:
(1) Gab is where I found my people
- Gab is flooded with my target audience. It is a lot easier to connect with people and learn about their interests on Gab than anywhere else.
- 3 posts on Gab gets me more subscribers who actually engage with my content than 100 posts anywhere else. I save so much time!
(2) There’s a huge opportunity on alt-tech
- People are fed up with censorship and big tech algorithms. Because of that, they are fleeing to alternative tech in DROVES.
- They need a following, so they are willing to follow + engage wherever they can to be a part of this amazing opportunity.
(3) Gab is a work-in-progress / sandbox of opportunity
- The medium is clunky - so there is enormous room for growth.
- I feel free to experiment and try new things all the time. Which will only help me in the long run.
(4) I am a part of something new
- Gab is unlike any other site right now based on its behind-the-scenes infrastructure. Because of that, everyone is curious.
- There are tons of questions to be answered. And a bunch of older people that aren't spending time on Twitter.
- Answer someone's question and they will respect you for a long time (especially an older person who really could use the help).
(5) You are more productive when you are having fun
- Find out where "your people" hangout then meet them there. Explore alt-tech now - before its too late (I believe alt-tech, along with crypto centered sites like Minds and Hive.blog, are like HTML or the dotcom boom).
- Learn the platform along with its founders. Be a part of something new and talk about the journey (tons of content ideas from strictly that alone).
Think outside the box and COMMIT.
There's a lot of opportunity out there for the taking. Don't miss out!
