you gotta follow people to see cool and interesting posts

I know twitter has made following people a potential landmine. I too was weary of following people I didn't know on here.

But then I said fuck it, and started following back every person that followed me. And soon I started seeing all kinds of cool posts I haven't seen on here previously.

If you're worried cohost contains too many [x] type of posters, it is likely because that is all you are following.

If you want to see more art posts, start following artists. Then follow the artists they share.

If you want to see a bunch of posts about a particular subject, find some hashtags, and follow those. Then follow the posters in those hashtags that make Good Posts.

But What if I follow a bad person by accident?

  • Cohost doesn't let you see who's following who, by design. The days of being harassed because you followed someone who had a bad take in 2014 are over on this site. Cohost also provides tools for dealing with not wanting to see posts by someone, by providing tools to block, mute, and even report users (please only use the report feature for egregious terms of service violations etc).

I followed a ton of people and now I see the same post shared over and over

  • That is a problem being worked on. I suggest scrolling past using your mouse wheel, page down key, or scrolling finger if on mobile.

I want a bunch of cool posters to follow me!

  • I suggest making good posts, and using the tag features extensively.

And then, when you start seeing cool stuff that you want to see more of, follow up the share chain! see who shared the post to the person who shared it to you, and follow them! Probably also follow the OP! Just hit follow on everything you like!
