not anymore lol

if you have problems with the new post editor, don't tell me about them. i'm not fixing it. but if you like it then tell me about that because i like receiving praise for features i worked on.



we have turned on the new post editor for everyone. it's like 95% done but we're not finishing it at this point. if it sucks you can turn it off in your settings. have fun placing images mid-post.

@frostsparks asked:

I would really like to ask, if you're willing,,
Would you share some of the april fools day ideas you & the team had planned for cohost? I've only been using the site for a year and never got to experience any

ONES THAT WE ACTUALLY DID:

  • Tumblr theme (we only had 50 users at this point because it was in the alpha window. joke for us and 50 of our friends and no one else)
  • Numbers™️

ONES THAT I WANTED TO DO (in no particular order, mostly collated from searching the work chat):

  • cohost battle pass
  • all posts must be constructed using mentions. if you want to use a word that isn't a page yet too fucking bad. no new pages allowed for that day (this one was never going to happen but i proposed it)
  • font replaced with jokerman (i actually have a screenshot of that one)
  • the heap
  • full screen ad for The Boys season 2
  • new markdown element that makes a quote look way fancier so you can pass it off as authoritative
  • factions and a reputation system
  • new accounts start off following a bunch of bot accounts like it's your first fortnite match
  • randomly assigned verification checkmarks with no indication as to what they represented
  • that one tweet about requiring users to list what kind of milk they drink
  • Council of Advisors
  • cohost minus, for $3 a month you are able to to less
  • stories
  • gildan tee of eggbug drinking lean
  • this
  • tag you can only post in during certain hours of the day
  • hats
  • wide mode (preview below)

uhhhhhh that's all i can think of for now. there was never a universe in which we did the majority of these but some of them maybe. "cohost battle pass" was an ongoing joke since pre-alpha. i think Factions could have actually happened. hats came close a couple times. stories would have been really funny but a lot of work. ok bye.
