PROTIP -

If the Firehose is too much, you can unpin it.

If a hashtag, word or phrase is annoying you, filter it.

If a person is annoying you, block them.

If you don't want to block them, mute them.

If you only want your friends to see your posts in feeds, set that as your default post privacy setting in your settings/preferences.

The tools are available for you to combine in your own way and make COSO your unique experience.

PSA - In this immediate aftermath of having to rapidly expand our infrastructure to cope with all the new users in such a short amount of time if you clock any 500 errors - don't wig out, it's me I'm having to tune our backend environment.

^^^ Recommend checking it out with your fave song on. It can't hear it, but your mind will use auto-suggestion to make all the parts fit.

Much like current social media does to you.

No shit. Try it. Feed back welcome.
