Welcome to all my newbie brothers and sisters! If you're just coming in from the bird site, a couple of things to know about CoSo
- It's a pretty pro-democracy place here & so there is much less need to wear that kind of politics on your sleeve (and yes, I realize I've got a #BLM hashtag in my display name). You generally need not introduce yourself with defiant statements about fighting the GOP--we get it, that's why we're here too.
1/?
- The lack of algorithmic feed manipulation means that having lots of followers or lots of likes is less important than other places. So you can relax on that score.
- We have delete & re-draft! (which is almost like an edit button)
- The user interface on a computer is indeed kind of busy, and will likely take a bit of getting used to. Please be patient with the site & yourself as you acclimate.
2/?
- You can turn off some of the UI geegaws by activating "ostrich mode" in your profile settings.
- When in doubt, hit up the user guide: counter.social/userguide.pdf
WELCOME!
