Amid recent chaos, several Twitter alternatives have reported a surge in new users. The latest to gain mainstream momentum is Hive Social, an app that combines some of the familiar elements of Instagram, Twitter and even MySpace.

Elon Musk’s rocky takeover of Twitter has already been marked by mass layoffs, resignations and the reinstatement of former president Donald Trump’s account, as well as other controversial figures, leaving many users uncertain about the direction of the platform’s future. Amid the chaos, several Twitter alternatives have reported a surge in new users.

A Twitter account associated with the app said Wednesday that it had been inundated with new user sign-ups and “Email verifications are still down but Google and Apple sign in work!” The Twitter account also responded to some troubleshooting requests from Twitter users who were similarly setting up their accounts on the platform and confronting confusion and glitches. On its website, Hive Social also outlines goals for keeping the community respectful.

😂😂😂

The takeover has been 'rocky' for 7500 former (and apparently unnecessary) employees but Twitter appears to be running without a hitch. Check back on how these alternatives are faring in 6 months.

Hahahahahahahahahahhahhahahhahah... CNN you are so cute when you are trying

That is just wonderful. Those who love censorship are censoring themselves off Twitter. Good bye and good riddance.

Social media is the sewer pit of the entire globe and here you are making it front page news

How's CNN+ doing?

Where was the same news about truth social, parler, gab, etc when twitter users looked for alternatives 5 years ago?

Love to see all these liberal commie snowflakes leaving Twitter…

Real news depends on what you consider the definition of a surge is.

Let them deal with the poisonous 'Wokeness', we want real debates on Twitter.

More lies from fake garbage bias news CNN. Last in all rating!

There isn't a replacement for twitter. People will either have to stick it out or sacrifice and make do with less on another platform.

Twitter has over 206 million active users! These alternatives are peanuts!

Define “surge”

If you mean surge by then getting banned you’re hilarious.

We need to find a place that when we speak everybody only agrees with us……… Hilarious………

elonmusk that it's true?

Notice how cnn gets no attention these days, woke is dead, everyone is waking up and the leftists are disgusting pedophiles

Twitter is better than ever. It’s really cleaning up. Think I’ll stick it out

Twitter is better than ever now.

Hey, when are y’all going to talk about Joe Biden’s daughters journal? And maybe investigate why his own son calls him peto Pete ?

Lol... and?

😂

This is a Neurotransmitter, looking for parrots and mockingbirds and they can't have us all getting along. Here at mocking bird lane, they have pics, words, and want you to repeat what you seen! SqawkingParrotsRepeat ListenToOurMasters NeverThinkOnYourOwn ObeyNoMatterWhat

This tweet saw more views than that original airing....

Wish I could be a fly on the wall when these people get to their new destinations and find out where all the people who got banned from twitter went in the first place lol.

FAKE NUMBERS, FAKE STORY, FROM THE QUEEN OF FAKE NEWS CNN ...NO ONE CARES ...BYE

Lol

Libs can't handle the truth

Lol, CNN is funny.

It's CNN ...my BULLSCHIFF ALARM is sounding ...yep indicates incoming bullschiff from CNN.

Lol, only Americans are sick of enon because of their political views. the rest of the world especially Asia, which has 4 billion population doesn't really care🤣🤣

😂😂😂

Twitter's increase in traffic since elonmusk took over exceeds that of the TOTAL traffic of all the alternatives combined. Flee to your echo chambers if you fear a free speech level playing field. It only shows you know your viewpoints can't hold up to honest debate.

Elon is funny. You people are the ones throwing tantrums bcs he's banning child porn and pædos. But keep shoveling 💩 for those 🐑. Bahhh

free advertising Twitter rivals, nice try CNN, pathetic 😂

Weird, you never ran a story on conservative social platforms when we were all being censored.

Haahahahahha

Why would anyone with an ounce of intelligence get their news from CNN?!?

Perhaps these are CNN alternatives

Hopefully more libs leave. See ya

Suuurrre

Ha, Twitter is also at all times highs.

😂😂😂😂😂 all of them will fail and they’ll come back to Twitter……Twitter is too influential. You can’t escape someone you depend on

Good to see old friends again on MySpace. Hoping AOL will come back. I still have a CD with 250 free hours of trial.

And Twitter use has increased faster since Musk's takeover.

Still with the fake news? Embarrassing.

I haven’t noticed any difference on twitter. I think people are making sh!t up.

They are developing, but will be back on Twitter.

Like 10?

Dnc propaganda machine promoting alternate sites

CNN

Priceless!

Good riddance!

Lies...

So the bots are finding new homes.... good!!!

False.

Are users so woke they can't interact with the world? Has the woke media brainwashed folks so well they turn into social deviates? Time to grow up people. Grow a spine.

Yes the liberals will and no one will miss them!!

Omgz we need new echo chamber

CNN posts.................on Twitter.

YAY, all of the hall monitors who never grew up are leaving!

Like what, 'Woke-er', 'Sissy-ist'?

🤣🤣🤣

Tell us about it on Twitter.

Twitter traffic is increasing, people are coming back to Twitter and using it

People on mastadon are eating themselves, it's hilarious.

The established mainstream media plummeting low engagement says it all. Tell the truth, and make the world a better place if you want to change the downward spiral. elonmusk and realDonaldTrump is showing courage.

Why do Democrats desperately need you to ONLY view sources that they control?

is a joke. Trying to take down a private company because your ideology can’t control it anymore. You’re nothing more than propaganda

CNN being salty at Elon again, how unexpected. I know it tastes salty, but it's polite to swallow.

Amidst false opinionated news....I switched from CNN to Aljazeera...

Musk is thoughtless, clueless, worthless and useless. Can’t you do anything right without destroying it? Twitter will turn into a ghost town. Then you’ll be standing there with mud on your face looking like Wild E. Coyote.

Chaos? What chaos?

they should start one called borg

Twitter is very fucking fun. It’s only awful for those who hate debating.

Take a hike to those platforms then. Peace out 🖕🏽

🔥 Watch Warrior Nun on Netflix 🔥

Hahahaha Article posted on Twitter

lets try

Mauve over there to schmooz.

We don’t care actually. Funny you posted this ON TWITTER the place you haven’t left for hive social. I promise you truth social has more users than give social. For sure

60 million 'followers', less than 100 likes on any article released since the bot purge, less engagement than an independent basket weaving blog. Really makes you think

Yeah no sorry

cnn where truth goes to die

You spent $300M on CNN+ You have no idea about the digital marketplace.

what happened to Mastodon? isn't it supposed to be Twitter killer?

Ewww MySpace…

Lol myspace....

Desperation runs deep

Awesome...competition is good. Believe Twitter will be the public square for the most part though, so does the gov. Why they're fighting so hard to control it now they don't control the people who run it. Before elonmusk it was 'It's a private company' now it needs 'regulation'

Chaos? Things seem fine

Run and hide…. Run and hide….

Nice try LOSERS!!!

رژیمی ک با هموطن خودش چنین میکنه،بعد از غنی سازی با دنیا چه خواهد کرد؟

Pffff bahahah

Twitter alternative Hive Social is giving another 'Hive' site a bump in businessAs Twitter users looked for alternatives, Hive has seen as much as a 330% increase in its recent daily web traffic, according to its chief marketing officer Zuzanna Wilson. The company was mistaken for Hive Social, a suddenly popular social-media app. ...and the Left considers themselves smart? 🤣 I went to check it out but it doesn't work on my Android phone. The screen is just blank. We are not for an alternative to twitter. We are only coming back to it now, after those crazy liberals who ran it before, were driven out.
