The best way to get noticed here is to use the hashtags
If you post a news article use the #news or #cosonews tags
For Dems etc.. #Dems #Democrats
Search these common hashtags to see posts and share in the conversation by pinning the tab
You can unpin and pin again at any time - I pin news, check it out and then unpin til later
Also try a combo of 'coso' like this
#CatsOfCoso
#DogsOfCoso
or just plain
#Cats etc
The more we use the hashtags the better we can navigate around our own choices
Happy May Day
#Solidarity
#Presente

I am happy when new folks ask questionsโmany of them are so relatable and others benefit from the answers.
CoSo is always growing and improving thanks to our host, @th3j35t3r
Some of the questions highlight future possibilities for change, and J is very responsive to the community.
Please just give him time. His hands are full atm. And please also give the benefit of the doubt if you note something that could work better. Nothing about the place has malign intentions.

"In two years, the Nazis killed 10,000 civilians in Mariupol. And the Russian occupiers in two months - more than 20 thousand Mariupol. More than 40,000 people were forcibly deported. This is one of the worst genocides of civilians in modern history. The Russian army is purposefully and ruthlessly destroying our city and its inhabitants."

Gentle reminder for the newbies: don't worry too much about follower counts. What matters is that you connect with folks. They might follow you back; they might not. Is ok. You can still interact!
Lots of the old regulars will wait to follow back until you make a positive impression on them or you interact several times.
It's how we roll here. :)

It just occurred to me that for many, particularly the new arrivals there may be almost a hint of anxiety about connecting.
There is room for everybody, and the potential for awesome connections to develop in time.
Please don't feel a sense of urgency to get settled with tons of follows/followers.
CoSo is truly about the conversations and the reciprocity that comes with knowing and caring.
The music won't cut out and leave anyone stranded.

Musk told the UN he'd give $6 billion to end world hunger if they produced a detailed plan. They called his bluff and gave him their planโ and then they never got the money. Now heโs buying Twitter for $45 billion.
Here is the executive summary of the UNโs plan for how they would spend the money, titled "WFP's plan to support 42 million people on the brink of famine": https://www.wfp.org/stories/wfps-plan-support-42-million-people-brink-famine
