PSA - It has been brought to our attention that 'JivoChat' a component widely used on commercial sites as a form of communication between customers and businesses has been bought by Russian Sberbank.
We have been using this for our Support and Conflict Resolution Center element. In light of this we will be removing the JivoChat component from https://counter.social.
It will no longer be available from 1230am ET tonight.
We will rollout a replacement in due course.

I will keep saying this: CoSo is not Twitter. Your toots are not going to go viral. There is no algorithm pumping up controversial content. There are no trending hashtags. This is your chance to change how you interact with people online. It's your chance to reclaim a humanity which social media giants seek to extirpate.
