November is J’s big bill month, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the bill just got bigger, so please consider donating/supporting/purchasing a pro membership if you have the disposable income for it. If you don’t, then… uh, don’t. Coso’s not about that. But it would be neat to boost posts that advertise that stuff once in a while.

Whether you realize it or not, you have been conditioned by social media to behave in a certain way.

Fishing for likes. Amping up follower counts. Trying to go viral for impression counts.

Those things aren't necessary here. Hang up your spurs, and just be yourself. #CoSoTips

@JohnPoveromo 🤣
Welcome to CoSo !!
A little background

5 yrs ago, this site was created from blood, sweat & tears & for all the right reasons by one man

Not for notoriety or for profit

Coso is non negotiable

So I think you're safe to pull up a chair & be prepared to set a spell 😎

Mr. J3ST3R get some heavy-duty sleep in you to recharge, please.
You do not need to get sick.,

This place isn't about follower counts or fishing for clout. It's about real connections with real people.

Proceed accordingly to get the most out of your experience here. #CoSoTips

I am a proponent for patience and grace, recognizing that folks can behave poorly when under stress.

I understand that the transition to a new platform can be challenging.

For those prone to complaining, please consider, CoSo is a free alternative that has been offered to you.

It's not a commissioned project that anyone has paid for. It attempts to offer solutions with a high degree of customizable features.

Give it time, try it out--allow gripes to become gratitude.

🙏

And right now possibly useful: unpinning your firehose and curating pins for your interests based on hashtags.

I'm tellin' ya, folks: the hashtags are the key. Use them when you post, & to make your columns. Calmer, saner, curated.

CoSo: Be the algorithm you wish to see in the world.

My advice to the newcomers:

1) check out @CoSoTips or #cosotips
2) check out commonly used hashtags at @realDDGlover ‘s timeline
3) Introduce yourself
4) watch the firehose & follow those with similar interests (scroll down a tiny bit to stop autofeed)

5) GIVE IT SOME TIME. There is a huge influx from Twitter rn, as you can imagine. Let things settle a bit and then make up your mind. It’s a bit crazy rn 😅

6) welcome other newbies!

7) ping me if you need help!

Protip: Don't rely on the Community Firehose to find new followers. It'll make you dizzy!

Just post about the stuff you like, and follow those who like what you like. #CoSoTips

new friends, there is a setting called 'ostrich mode' which I had on for my laptop. I remember I turned it on during the last time we were getting such quick growth. If you find there are too many bells and whistles that helps a bit with other things (the banner and other features go away). you can turn it on again later if you want. I'm turning it back on now. :D

My advice to the newcomers:

4) watch the firehose & follow those with similar interests. People have control over privacy, so many convos may not be on firehose, but are in friends columns.

Holy hell is this taking long.

Still worth it.

In the last several months exactly one person involved with the Twitter madness gave me hope Twitter could be anything other than a dumpster fire.

His name is Parag Agrawal. He was the CEO of Twitter.

Musk's first move was to not only fire Parag Agrawal and two other execs, but he had security perp walk them out.

Musk is a pig of a human.
