Some may remember when #CoSo was apart of the #Fediverse until many in the latter blocked #CounterSocial for blocking IP addresses from countries sending waves of attack bots: https://countersocial.documize.com/s/c30dhakp0nhtab60utag/countersocial-blog/d/c5piofvuaqg133k3is90/the-history-of-countersocial-and-mastodon

Years later, I noticed some instances blocking those same countries (albeit temporarily), while some banned countries permanently: https://c.im/about

However, none of those were defederated. 🤔

Also, if CoSo was fully in the Fediverse, it would be a top 10 instance: https://darnell.day/fediverse-rankings-top-30-active-instances-including-controversial-servers

@Darnell

Thank you. I have had to defend #coso before. This history helps me to be more factual (to the best of my ability to understand the terms). Have forwarded to my IT mgr son to explain.

@LnzyHou You're welcome! Yeah, #CoSo is a great place. It's the #Singapore 🇸🇬 of social networks.

Is it strict‽ Yes! But by being strict #CounterSocial is able to keep out the trolls, spammers, criminals & those who spread false info.
