gravis again @cathoderaydude5/9/2024, 4:30 AM

after two? years on cohost it still feels amazing to have this experience

post something that sucks
wonder if everyone hated it
realize there is no follower count i can look at
stop caring if anyone hated it, instantly

I’ll sound like a new age hippie by saying this but:

I truly believe the lack of numbers in most places on cohost is Healing™️, I’m at the point where I wish I could obliterate numbers off every other website because it influences so much of how you view people it’s insane.
There are people behind profiles and numbers tend to dehumanize them in very pernicious ways, I feel.

Related: if you see anybody telling you X or Y is “a big account” on cohost you can safely ignore their opinion because unless they’re staff they have literally no way of knowing that lol

For real, not having to think about numbers 99% of the time is liberating. I can't help but sound like a new-age hippie when i say it, but it's true

lean into it. "nah man, it's like, Natural Social Media dude it doesn't have any of the additives or preservatives. It all comes from the earth."

cohost! Now with Organic Eggbug

Pendell @pendell5/9/2024, 5:02 AM

It's true I picked my plushie from the eggbugg tree

sirocyl @sirocyl5/9/2024, 7:04 PM

I don't think about numbers 23% of the time. or maybe 652%. #$37,532.4735!%? I dunno, the point I'm trying to make is NaN times out of 10 numbers don't concern me

bad posts just slip quietly away into the underbrush, to decompose naturally amongst the fallen leaves and other bad posts. sheltering and nourishing larval eggbugs.

there is a slick new Cohost browser add-on that consolidates many userscripts i already use but one of the features is follower count display so i've been avoiding installing it because i don't want to know and wouldn't have the strength not to peek

Sharky @sharky04565/17/2024, 1:13 AM

thanks

Sharky @sharky04565/20/2024, 2:44 AM

wait you can already see roughly how many followers you have on your followers page anyway

nice to have the extention count for me though to save me the effort of counting manually

thanks a lot i got 27 which is more than i thought and im pretty happy about that :)

Oh come on, you wouldn't even get to see hatemail comments/shares. All negative responses would be unrelated and untagged posts, probably not even mentioning you by name or user name - more likely starting with "wow, some people here..."

Bandit @dddarkxwolf175/9/2024, 1:54 PM

wow, im new

chirasul @chirasul5/9/2024, 9:30 PM

and it's a good thing too because if I couldn't post things that suck, what would I have left

Audino @pmd-audino5/11/2024, 5:59 AM

Social media birthed the attention economy, which turned into attention capitalism. Cohost tears it all down. All we needed were forums with shares.

Back when I was still using Twitter, I used a browser extension to hide all the metrics. This made the user experience infinitely better. 🥴
