CounterSocial will be exactly SEVEN YEARS OLD in five days.
Seven years ad-free.
Seven years troll-free.
Seven years bot-free.
Seven years of protecting a community from the worst actors online.
This hasn't been without tremendous effort and cost. If you have the means, please consider going Pro today. Your 16¢ per day helps us to keep the servers on.
Can't go Pro? Don't worry. We've got you covered. #CoSoTips

I know it’s still early to freak but though I feel Harris will win, the journey to the end is making me anxious.

@stueytheround I did not know that! I deleted my Facebook account years ago, & links on Instagram are not automatically hyperlinked (they are on the web but not in the app), so I rarely post links there.
That is weird. #Threads has banned #CounterSocial even though #CoSo is not in the #Fediverse.
I believe an AI is automatically banning sites as the flagship #Mastodon & #Misskey sites were previously banned (myself & others brought it to their attention & the sites were removed from the ban list).
All #Pixelfed sites (a federated version of #Instagram) are muted for not boasting a public feed.
You can look at Thread ban list here: https://www.threads.net/moderated_servers (you must be logged in to view it)

Just heard a commercial for a new movie that bragged critics were claiming it was "the best movie of the year" ... which doesn't really impress me much since the year is only 11 days old.
@JasonCrocker616 @MeidasTouch They were active upon #Mastodon for awhile: https://mstdn.social/@MeidasTouch
They seemed to have switched over to #Threads now: https://www.threads.net/@meidastouch
@JasonCrocker616 @Victor @MeidasTouch The account does not seem to be active. 🤔

I discovered today that there’s a shortage of eggnog.
Really.
I found some at my third store and I’m feeling slightly like a holiday hero.
*curtsies*

@corlin Yep! Good advice!

Random thoughts:
When building an infrastructure, an institution, or any complex system. Start with a small simple system, and slowly evolve it in an irritative way.
"A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be made to work. You have to start over, beginning with a simple system."
~ Gall’s Law
Design for:
Robust, Efficient, Adaptable, pick two.
@Evereigh Heh! That’s like those photo bucket emails I get telling me that they will delete my videos & photos if I do not reactivate my account.
I am like: 🤷🏾♂️

"With a war in Europe and a war in the Middle East and government funding running out on November 17, not to mention all the other work that falls to Congress, the House did not hold a single floor vote this week.
Essentially, the Republican extremists have paralyzed the government in the midst of an unusually dangerous time."-Heather Cox Richardson
