How do I find people to follow on Gab?
Last updated June 17, 2026
Gab's search, Explore tab, trending topics, and groups are the main ways to find accounts worth following. A fresh account has an empty timeline; the faster you follow people, the more useful Gab becomes.
Search by name or username
If you know someone is on Gab, search their name or @username directly using the search bar. Public figures who've been deplatformed from other platforms often bring their audiences to Gab — search for them by name and they'll frequently appear.
Explore tab and trending
The Explore section surfaces popular accounts and trending posts across the platform. Browsing trending topics lets you find accounts posting about subjects you care about in real time. Follow anyone whose content looks worth reading.
Groups
Gab Groups are communities organized around specific topics. Join groups aligned with your interests and you'll immediately find accounts posting in your space. This is often faster than search for building a relevant timeline.
Feeds
Gab Feeds curate content by topic rather than account. Follow a Feed to see posts from across the platform on a particular subject — and from there, follow specific accounts whose posts you like.
