idk how to use this website lol a friend was like "oh im tryin to get into cohost but idk how to find people since I can't look at follow lists" and I was like yeah i. dont follow anyone. there's like two people I follow here that I didn't follow on twitter or know from somewhere else first and one of em I got bored real fast and unfollowed. The answer based on site design seems to be "use tags" but I feel like we can be honest here and say that most of us just aren't using em, and that's not like a "shame on them" thing because I just didn't... ever have to tag stuff. I don't have the impulse. Tagging feels fake, I barely even used hashtags on twitter. Tagging is good but I'm just not gonna do it for every post, it's not in my nature to do so. And I think a lot of people on here are like that too if they're bein honest with themselves. So tags don't quite get everything and you can't really browse anything so how do you find people on this website, actually
The obvious answer is "you see a share of a post you like and you want to follow them" but that only applies if you are already following people, if your feed is empty you don't see shares of anything. More personally, I haven't seen a single post (or comment!) on here that's made me go "oh yeah I should follow this person". That's more of a me problem than a website problem but it is true. My feed is already a mess whenever someone makes a good joke, adding more users would just introduce more noise.
