| ![]() Canada Has Its Own Twitter Now — Meet Parlon, a Social App Just for CanadiansNo Bots, No Billionaires: Meet Parlon, Canada's Newest Social Platform
By: Parlon.ca Built by Canadian developer Jeremy Thompson, Parlon is a modern microblogging platform that embraces the original spirit of Twitter - short, punchy posts, chronological feeds, and authentic community, while removing the parts that have driven users away: bots, algorithmic manipulation, billionaire drama, and foreign influence. "Parlon is designed by Canadians, for Canadians," says Thompson. "It's not about going viral. It's about being real. We want to bring back social media that feels social — and actually Canadian." ❄️ What Makes Parlon Different?
Launched in July 2025, Parlon is already gaining traction in tech circles, meme communities, and news junkies who are tired of U.S.-dominated platforms. The app's early users include journalists, students, indie creators, and civic-minded Canadians looking for a healthier online space. "Social media should be a public square, not a casino," Thompson says. "We're building something slower, smaller, and more human — and we think that's what Canada needs right now." 🔗 Try Parlon Parlon is now live at https://parlon.ca. Sign-up is free and open to all Canadian users. End
