Gab Groups

Gab Groups are moderated communities within Gab Social where users organize around shared topics, interests, or identities. Think of them as subreddits, Facebook Groups, or Discord servers — but on a platform that won't delete the group because its subject matter is politically inconvenient.

What it means

Groups have their own feeds, member lists, and moderation settings. The group owner and any moderators they appoint can set their own rules: who can post, whether the group is public or private, and what kinds of content are welcome. This is community-level moderation — distinct from platform-level censorship. A group owner choosing to keep their community on-topic is exercising the same right as a property owner setting house rules.

Groups are one of Gab's most active features, covering topics from news and politics to faith, business, hobby communities, and local interest groups.

How it works on Gab

Any Gab user can create a group for free. Public groups appear in search and can be browsed by non-members. Private groups require an invitation or approval. Members post directly into the group feed, and posts can be pinned, highlighted, or removed by moderators. Group owners can also link to external resources or set a group-level description that appears in search results — making groups part of Gab's broader SEO surface.

Gab Feeds are a related but distinct concept — curated content streams rather than communities. The difference: a feed follows content by topic or tag; a group is a membership-based community with its own identity and moderation. Both sit within Gab Social.
