Lincoln, Maine – 04/06/2020: As the rights of social media companies to censor their users continue to be hotly debated in political circles as well as the general public, Nitrotext has developed a platform that puts free speech first and hopes to change social media – and online advertising platforms – for the better.
A fresh entrant to the world of social networking sites, Nitrotext was founded as a much-needed social media solution for proponents of free speech everywhere. It’s anti-censorship values inform the core of its services, as well as its products, which include an instant messaging application along with social media apps.

A representative for the company had this to say, “Over the last few months, censorship has been a big buzzword for people. Particularly in the context of social media usage, it’s all over the news and everywhere on the internet. It’s the social media giants that wrote the rules, but the irony is they aren’t held accountable for profiting off billions of users and millions of businesses while simultaneously stifling their voices. We felt the time was right for a platform that’s built on the principle of freedom of speech.”
It’s worth noting here that through the deployment of algorithms and use of big data, the most popular social media sites assume the power to control what their users see at any given time. Businesses, for example, often find that their posts end up performing poorly and not reaching even half of their target audience.

The solution offered for this problem is paid advertising, which guarantees massive reach to a particular demographic or region. This leads many to believe that algorithms are little more than a tool for social media companies to earn more, rather than optimizing their user experience through relevant posts.
Jackson M, a small business owner from Augusta, faced similar issues when he first set up a Facebook page for his family-owned furniture store. He says, “I feel my store was doing just fine, but my young ones kept insisting that this was the way things are done now. I caved and had them make a Facebook page for me. They’d share pictures of our inventory, but then local customers I’ve been selling to for 10 years would tell me that they can never see anything from our store on there. When I asked around, other business owners told me I had to pay them and keep paying ‘em for it to work.”
On the other hand, social media users are also annoyed at how their posts on the major platforms get removed seemingly arbitrarily, whereas real issues aren’t dealt with.
Shirley F, a college student from Portland, shared her views: “I was posting pictures from a Black Lives Matter rally I attended, but they kept being removed over ‘community guideline violations’ or some such nonsense. Not only did I not get a satisfactory explanation, but when I’d complain about genuinely harmful posts, they would do nothing about them. Thankfully, I haven’t had to struggle with issues like this since I joined Nitrotext. I’m glad I signed up!”
Nitrotext aims to offer the best instant messaging software online, and efficient, censorship-free social media marketing for small businesses that’s a viable Facebook alternative.
