In other news, there'l be a MAJOR announcement within the next, well, could be few hours, could be a couple of days regarding a feature a LOT of you have been asking for. It'll be available for the browser and official app, and you will NOT need a PRO account to activate it.

Stay tuned, @status will announce when the final wrinkles have been ironed out.

We could write a lengthy "HOW STUFF WORKS" post that sheds light on what happens when website infrastructure is suddenly inundated with tens of thousands of new users, but it would frankly be very boring.

Instead, we will simply ask once again for your patience as we work to rapidly expand and remind you that growing pains are not unique to CounterSocial. #CoSoTips

Are you experiencing glitches or other issues using CounterSocial?

It isn't just you. We are currently experiencing a massive influx of new users. We genuinely can't explain it either. It's a mystery, wrapped in a riddle, ensconced inside of an enigma, cold-pressed through a malevolent billionaire's hubris. #CoSoTips
