When I first came to CoSo not the long ago, the first thing I LOVED about it was the quiet. It reminded me so much of the early days online where the kind of engagement you 𝙛𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 was the kind of engagement you 𝙜𝙖𝙫𝙚. You found people by putting yourself out there, by being yourself, by choosing others (long before channels and forums). The firehose isn't the 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 way to find people. I found amazing people by just being myself and interacting with epic people who 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚 quality interaction with me.

I'm very old school that way ... I can still remember the early days of the web, before it went public even (pre-aol) and it was such a very different space. It was open ... wide open ... there was no one to tell you where to go or what to do or how to find things or people (there wasn't that much to find anyway). Someone introduced you to chat space and you went from there. You learned. You were a voice in vast space ... like a kind of marco polo ... you were yourself and people found you.

I will always call it like I see it. Communication is *everything*, and *effective* communication is more. Without it, misunderstandings happen and feelings get stepped on.

In spite of my snarky, sarcastic, and often sardonic and acerbic approach, I’m really just an old softy who would rather lead with affirmation than criticism.

That’s another reason why I already like it better here.

Nice to “meet” you. 👊🏻👊🏻
