Dogs & cats & hobbies appreciated too. 😊
Moments of levity are needed during the shitshow.

@Deck449 you might want to use when discussing those issues, for those who want to filter that out. lots of folks here will discuss, but some prefer not to & filters help curate their feeds

@redenigma @Deck449

Fortunately, there are also ways to filter out the insidious posts about cats, even if they never use

Welcome, D!

You've gotten some pretty good info already. Let me just add use hashtags liberally. It will help the people who are interested in your subject find you. And those who want to hang out with you but aren't interested in some of those topics can block them and still enjoy your company.

Have fun! You'll find it's pretty easy to jump in to conversations and get to know people!

@Deck449 This place is also monitored for troll users, which is nice. They don't last long here. Unlike the other site which reinstated many of them after the sale.

Welcome in!

@Deck449 welcome. Yep, it's like Twitter before it got messy. There are also filters, so if someone isn't into politics they can simply add the keywords they don't like to not see it. On the flip side, if you're a political junkie, in advanced mode, you can assign a column to surface only those keywords.

Follow liberally as the good convos are usually in the replies that don't appear in the firehose. But, if you're not feeling someone, click the three dots to mute/block.

@Deck449 there is a wide variety of topics - hang out in the Community Firehose and grab the User's Guide help.counter.social/en/latest/ where you'll find a list of the most common hashmarks.

CoSo community is built on hashtags, so look 👀 at the extensive list of in the guide.
Follow a few folks from the Firehose who interest you and settle into a friendly community.
Also, we love pet/animal pics. Here’s my cat saying ”stop with the pics” 🤣💕🤣

@Deck449 Hashtags are going to be a major help for finding your CoSo peeps with your same interests. Also, building lists or columns of your interests. It will help with similar interests find your thoughts. Then for those who have no interest in those subjects, they/you can filter so those posts don't end up in your feed.

For instance I filter out all posts related to sports, but still see those individuals posts on art, politics, and music.
