I Just Signed Up for Gander—The Canadian Twitter That Might Actually Be Nice

Posted by By

In early 2025, I finally deleted Twitter from my phone. Not in a dramatic rage-quit kind of way—just a quiet “this isn’t good for me anymore” kind of moment. The app that once gave me breaking news, spicy jokes, and Raptors trade drama had become, well… exhausting. Less barbershop banter, more dumpster fire.

So when I heard about Gander, a new Canadian-made social media platform that’s promising a safer, more civil alternative? I was in.

Yes, I’ve already signed up for the beta. And yes, you can too.
