There is no algorithm here. That means a few very important things:
1. It's on YOU to curate your content. Set up FILTERS to manage your feed.
2. You should be very deliberate about who you follow. Follow-backs are not expected here.
3. Follower and like counts are meaningless. You're measured by the quality of your contribution, and nothing else.
4. You're expected to mute and/or block disagreeable people without hesitation.
It isn't automatic, but making it yours is well worth it. #CoSoTips
@corlin I'll say it again...I love reading your posts, Corlin.
Just beautiful.

Relationships thoughts
How many of you read aloud to you lover. Or write letters by hand, on paper, and snail mail. Do things before they are asked of you. Sit in silence listening intensely to your lovers words. Habit and boredom are the death of love, spontaneity and humor feed it. Disagree lightly, and hold no grudges. But also speak passionately about your beliefs and ideas. It is a dance, not a race. Water flowing is the model.
Love is a verb.
Well, 2022 is 1939 redux, folks.
A NEW "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" is about to fill screens all over again.

Unlike elsewhere, CounterSocial isn't big on drama. If you see anyone who you consider to be disagreeable, you are encouraged to quietly make them disappear. You have three options:
1. Block. This person disappears, and they can't see you.
2. Mute. This person disappears, but they can still see you.
3. Soft Mute. This person disappears until they mention you.
People are like flavors. You won't like them all, and they won't all like you. Skip the drama. Use the tools. #CoSoTips
@stueytheround @th3j35t3r Oh, no....never. It's critical that we all develop the same level of intimacy that we had with Jack to feel safe.
What did his post, like once a year?
@InvaderGzim @BrianHjelleVirologist The ability to organize is dangerous to the self-annointed Kings, Lords and Princes.
@BrianHjelleVirologist Won't be long until it's totally owned by the Saudi Prince.
@Jene_Sais_Quoi Morning, Jene!
@th3j35t3r Pretty soon you'll have to train a whole pack of vicious, snarly schnauzers to patrol the 100 yd data center complex fence line. Might need to add "buy dog food" to your growing To Do list.
@th3j35t3r HAHAHA....you be savvy and then some.
@CherNohio @th3j35t3r Don't know why this is, but assigning blame seems to always be the first (unofficial) human step in the quality improvement process before people can move on to actually doing something to fix problems or making things better. It serves no important purpose in the end.
@Kevsorchids Check out the user guide and #CoSoTips! You'll be a pro in no time!
The secret to a long, happy life has a lot to do with one's ability to cope with change and loss. The two go hand-in-hand.
Welcome change as we float down the river to new adventures,

Here's hoping the Boss still has hair...
Goodest Friday Morning to everyone that was here and everyone that's new...
I think they're expanding onto the pub in the back... Plenty of room... But please remember, these construction projects cost mucho dinero...
If you like us, and understand that at CoSo your info isn't being bought and sold like catttle... Maybe consider #GoPro to help keep the lights on...
Growth is expensive
@earthling_down_under Bees know how its done right!
@CrimsonRTRGirl No way will this ever be sold out to anyone, especially to a billionaire. J has said so much in one of his posts.
@homebird NOTHING beats a good wool blanket for warmth!
