@Boelty just do some sort of small edit to the photo before posting. Slight crop or color adjustment will do the trick.

@drtz I use it regularly for reviewing businesses and adding photos or photospheres to places I visit. Of course I also search for locations and use the nearby feature.
I still switch to Waze for navigation though. I really wish they would just integrate the two.

A girl went bow hunting with her dad. Didn't find any though. Ended up using a scrunchy.

A quick word for new arrivals.
CoSo does not operate like many mass-market social networks, which push content to you based on what they think you want to see.
CoSo works on the principle that you, the user, will go and find what YOU want to see.
So if you're looking for news feeds up the wazoo, and suggested stories, you're not going to find them.
This means you will have to do slightly more work than you might do on FB or Birdsite.
You control the user experience a lot more.

@AAD_I I saw someone with a similar post who has blocked over 100k. So you can never block them all, they just get more and more strange.

@AAD_I I’ve been doing that for a while. It’s interesting to see how obscure the ads get after you’ve blocked everything mainstream. I’ve blocked around 1,200 so far.

In the west, the giantess Sig investigates demon sightings and discovers signs of an uprising and black magic.

And in the snowbound north, Drem, a trapper, finds mutilated corpses in the forests. The work of a predator, or something far darker?
It's a time of shifting loyalties and world-changing dangers. Difficult choices need to be made. Because in the shadows, demons are gathering, waiting for their time to rise...

A race of warrior angels, the Ben-Elim, once vanquished a mighty demon horde. Now they rule the Banished lands, but their peace is brutally enforced.

In the south, hotheaded Riv is desperate to join the Ben-Elim's peacekeeping force, until she unearths a deadly secret.

@Maleah same here. Sometimes those oak trees hang onto them until early spring.

I finished this book yesterday and give it a solid 4/5 star rating. Very interesting alt history plot with just enough magic to make it something special.

@MotherDucker I’ve been reading digital only for many years now. Every once in a while I will buy books to give as gifts.
I really loved “The Tide Child” trilogy by RJ Barker so I bought it hoping my kids would read it. When they are done I will give them away or drop them in. Little free library.

I agree with Murderbot and Wool, both solid choices but very different in style.
Earlier this year I read Early Riser by Jasper Fforde and thought it was really unique.

Babel is the world's center of translation and, more importantly, of silver-working: the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation through enchanted silver bars, to magical effect. Silver-working has made the British Empire unparalleled in power, and Babel's research in foreign languages serves the Empire's quest to colonize everything it encounters.

Currently reading Babel by R.F. Kuang.
