Parler is back online following several weeks of darkness after the social media site popular with supporters of former president Donald Trump was knocked offline.
Parler effectively fell off the Internet in January when Amazon refused to provide technical cloud computing support to the site after the tech giant determined Parler was not doing enough to moderate and remove incitements to violence. (Amazon founder and chief executive Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post).
The site was not fully functional on Monday, and some users reported technical glitches as they tried to log in and refresh feeds. Private messaging was disabled, but the basic outline of the site was live.

When I went to the Parler web site just a little while ago, I was able to log in and everything seemed to be working although it was a bit slow to load.

I'm glad Parler is back online. One of these days I may get back on it. I'm not enthusiastic about getting on any of the social media platforms (besides this one of course, and I suppose it is a 'social media platform' but I don't really think of it that way).
I run through my FB timeline once or twice a day, and occasionally post something. But not much, and not as often as I used to.
Maybe I'll get back to it one of these days. My goal is to eventually 'nearly' get off of FB and turn to MeWe, but I haven't gotten that far yet.
