Welcome Diane!

CoSo seems to be becoming the writer's haven lately :)

Excellent intro, and using hashtags and right-side-up photos on the first post. Bravo!

I have nothing to teach you, but here is a souvenir: counter.social/userguide.pdf

@jdiannedotson
And quite sincere. It really is different here.

If you have any questions, just ask. Helpers will leap up ;)

@jdiannedotson
Oh by the way, you will probably want to follow the and hashtags. That can be your first custom column ;)

@ceorl how and where do I make columns? Is that in the guide?

@jdiannedotson
Yes, but the very short version,

Click on or search for a hashtag.

It will open in a new column.

Use the menu at the top right of the column to "pin" and then add any additional hashtags you would like to include, and move the column left/right with the <> thingies to the desired location.

Done! :)

@ceorl this must work better for desktop because it doesn’t form a new column in the app

@jdiannedotson
Oh! I'm so sorry. I should always ask whether people are on phone or desktop. You are right, the column stuff is for desktop. The mobile versions are CoSo To Go, but desktop is the power version.

I believe you can use the desktop version on your phone or tablet though in a browser. I have even heard of it working in Safari, though that was just once ;)
