With big money backing high production values and 100% free to name the jew

Not trivial. Because any platform that allows it is immediately removed from the banking system, the advertising system, and blocked from spreading on other platforms, so it breaks the normal finance and growth strategies.

Create a new model for finance, and a new, repeatable, strategy for growing a user base, and then you're on to something.

Places like Gab for example, either got real lucky, or have an ulterior motive, because from all the opposition they face, there is very little explanation why they didn't survive.

Parler didn't. And it arguably had more institutional support and big names behind it, than gab did.

I suspect, if Gab isn't some third party honeypot landgrab (like corporations undermining their own stock to do a buyback, or in this case someone putting pressure on larger platforms for control), then it only still exists because it straddles the line between threat and non-threat in terms of membership levels. And I think, should it grow any larger, again assuming its not a front, that there will be a much broader and more powerful series of moves intent on destroying it--where before they only attempted to financially cripple it and cause it to wither on the vine.

Monopolism, and oligarchy, are themselves limits to growth.

Thats why they call it monopoly.

(used very loosely to also encompass duopoly, corporate cartels, etc)

What effect would it have? They would have reporters in the residential press briefings get the same access as cnn etc.

Thats theoretical. Really depends on who gives press passes. We've seen with sites like summit.news and revolver.news though, how this could work. And we see bannon now, using the presses desire for fame and first-to-the-story, in order to force the state into a situation where anything it does, any overreach by the state, further damages the state instead of helping it.

As it stands the press is still highly baitable, and even more so when the regime is between narrative cycles or in a lull.
