I'll be honest, the first social media site to give me the flexibility and freedom of Tweetdeck that handles spammers and racists will is going to win my loyalty. It doesn't feel like a huge ask, but maybe it is.

@LianaBrooks err... isn't _this_?
Tweetdeck was multi-column twitter. This is multicolumn better-than-twitter, racists and spammers get the boot tout de suite. What is the gap maybe it can be filled?

@b4cks4w Scheduling, international audience, and reach? I have not found my reader audience here.
I'm also using social media 90% for marketing my books and editing business, and 10% to hang out with other authors and readers.

@b4cks4w CoSo is really good for random chat and I enjoy that. I do log on here, but I have 65 followers.
On Twitter I had close to 5000 and even on Bluesky and Mastodon I have over 350 followers and growing as those sites grow.

@b4cks4w On Twitter I was reliable selling a copy of my book for every ad post. I posted two ads a day, and would sell 2-3 copies of my books per day. It isn't Quit The Day Job good, but it covered the college bills.

I lost that when I lost Twitter and Tweetdeck.

@LianaBrooks Got it. To my mind that's more of a Twitter thing than Tweetdeck, hence my confusion. Tweetdeck was a different UI for Twitter as far as I know.

@b4cks4w It probably was. I used it instead of Twitter because I liked the layout and the ability to schedule things. And the ability to follow people, but not see them every day. It was better for my mental health if I only saw the news from NOAA and the space station instead of every election thinkpiece.

@b4cks4w I could probably make CoSo work like that, and if I can find enough readers here, I will. In the meantime, I still miss Tweetdeck and the joy of free scheduling.
