if it makes you feel better my posts about pillowfort did way more tangible harm to that website than anything i have said about cohost, nothing i've posted about cohost has ended up in big tech news articles about how broken and insecure it is lmao
people get really mad when you tell people cohost is a massive money pit (like every other social media site that isn't some tiny community run on beer money) but like
if your site hosts tons of people's blogs, that they are linking everywhere, and you are trying to make your site compete with something like ko-fi by letting people set themselves up financially here to take tips and subscriptions, then yeah, people might wanna know your financial situation. that's why the financial posts they keep skipping are important, people absolutely have set up shop here and the site intends to get creators even more entrenched in cohost as an ecosystem for them and the more invested you are going to make people, the more those people need to know what they are signing up for and how you're doing.
Welcome to coho-ASSC is at least one million dollars in debt with their investor and this site is continually making negative money
