We've been doing this for almost seven years. How many breaches have we had in that time?

How many pop-up Twitter clones can say the same thing?

Both questions have the same answer:

All of the other social media sites—yes, all of them—exist to sell everything about you.

Don't take our word for it. Go to your nearest App Store and read their Data Privacy Disclosures.

We're different. We stay online through the generous subscriptions of our Pro users.

Facebook has been blocking CounterSocial for YEARS, but it can't stop you from sharing this innocent picture of our friendly mascot @Gippy.

Here's a great tip for when certain topics get out of hand.

On CounterSocial, you can set up TEMPORARY FILTERS.

Head into your filters settings with the link below, add a relevant term, and choose a duration between 30 minutes and one week.

Did you know that you can choose to hide boosts from specific individuals? It's true!

Visit their PROFILE, tap on the PROFILE OPTIONS, and choose HIDE BOOSTS.

CounterSocial isn't anything like other social media services. Show more

CounterSocial has kept its userbase safe and secure for almost seven years, but we haven't done it alone. When bad actors attempt to abuse this community, our users REPORT them.

If a TOS violation is identified, the offending account is evaporated (:trollsplat:) immediately.

You can help to ensure that CoSo remains a pleasant, safe place to be by using the REPORT feature to notify our admin of any abuse—whether it happens via a post, or from a direct message.

"This place is cool. How come I haven't heard of it before?"

We aren't entirely sure, but we suspect that it's because most of the other socials actively suppress any mention of CounterSocial—and have been for years.

Intrepid users who would like bypass their scrubbers could, in theory, post these awesome pictures if they wanted to hypothetically tell others about us. Perhaps.

TEMPORARY FILTERS are an excellent way to keep your sanity during particularly interesting times.

"What's with all of the ?"

This is a fun topic that anyone can add to because honestly, who doesn't love potatoes?

Want to join in? It's easy! Find something potato; a picture, a gif, a meme, an observation, anything. Post it, tag it with , and presto. Potato!

Did you know that desktop CounterSocial users can create custom columns for specific hashtags? It's true!

You can keep a close eye on all of the shenanigans by tapping on that hashtag, then choosing "+PIN" in the column options.

Hit the "Include additional hashtags in this column" radio button for even more options.

Desktop users of CounterSocial have many options when it comes to simplifying the interface:

1. Hop into your SETTINGS and enable OSTRICH MODE. This will hide the newsbar, sentiment meter, CoSoCom and other elements while retaining the multi-column layout.

2. Click on SIMPLIFIED MODE from the Main Menu. This will change your interface into a familiar, single-column layout.

Have you ever seen a .gif or other media that has you feeling some kind of way?

Tap on the little eye icon in the upper-left of any posted media to make it disappear.

You can make this behavior the default by choosing "Always Hide All Media" in your MEDIA DISPLAY settings.
