Rumble, a YouTube rival popular with conservatives, will pay creators who ‘challenge the status quo’

Rumble’s traffic has dramatically outpaced other social networks popular among conservative users. Between the last weeks of July in 2020 and 2021, website visits jumped nearly 300 percent for MeWe, to nearly 1.5 million visits, and 400 percent for Gab, with nearly 3 million visits, the Similarweb analysis shows. Parler, a site where many users posted videos of the Jan. 6 riots that have since been cited in criminal investigations, has seen its traffic cut in half, falling to roughly 200,000 visits.
