I'm disappointed but not surprised that one of my friends has left CoSo! Maybe it was too overwhelming for her and she couldn't be bothered to stay awhile and learn how to interact with the platform. But I want to thank everyone for the beautiful, warm welcome that you gave her. My two other friends..I don't know! I guess they will probably go the same route as Patty. Their loss!

@Spagesgallo1

Hey, you tried to show them a good thing. I've had the same experience.

I find the psychology of who CoSo works for and who it doesn't to be fascinating.

Why do some outgoing, ethical, intelligent, socially active people clam up and leave here?

Why do some people who never spoke up much elsewhere, like myself, find this to be such fertile ground?

Maybe if we undestood this, we'd know how to market CoSo better, and to whom :)

perhaps they're used to being top dog and can't get that dope here. withdrawal 🀧

Yes, I would expect that to be part of the cocktail of addiction.

I'm not able to be objective enough about myself to understand why it works for me.

Although, I've always enjoyed having deep and intimate conversations with extraordinary, and fairly invisible people.

@ceorl

depends on priorities. it's human to desire recognition, but SM has a perverting effect on that trait in some people, until they learn better.

@holon42

This made me think of why I like to keep my following/follower counts pretty much equal.

To me, they are connections rather than followers, even if we don't often speak directly to each other.

It ain't nothin' if it ain't mutual :)

@ceorl

just noticed it's got out of sync. probably the politics posts.
