What requires an account
Posting, commenting, liking, following, direct messaging, and joining private groups all require a free account. If you want to participate rather than just read, signing up takes about two minutes and doesn't require a phone number or credit card.
Why this matters
Guest access means Gab's content is publicly indexable by search engines — posts, profiles, and group pages can show up in Google results just like any other website. It also means you can share a Gab link with someone and they can read it without being forced to create an account first. That's a deliberate design decision that most major social platforms have moved away from.
