CounterSocial for Android

Counter social currently has no trolls. Anyone whose sole intention is to fight gets kicked pretty quickly. It’s a mastodon like environment for people to share ideas and laughs. Sure no one there thinks trump won. Does any intelligent person you want to talk to think that?

The way social media should be. You can voice an opinion without being attacked. You can just relax and enjoy intelligent conversation, cute pics of FurBabies, good music. No tolerance for bad behavior, but bots don’t make the decisions. Free, with extras for paying users. There’s a learning curve on the setup, worth the effort.

Do we need yet another social media platform? If it’s Counter Social, I’m going to say yes. It took me a minute to figure out how to navigate around the site, partly because there are so many useful features. But most folks find out pretty quickly, if you ask for help it’ll show up either from the platform owner himself (!) or from other generous members online. Are you into bots & misinformation, yearn to boost your popularity & count your follower numbers, or enjoy being the target of abuse just because…? At CoSo, bots are blocked, follower numbers aren’t prioritized. And abuse is strictly not tolerated. Certainly, there are quite a range of member interests, discussions, talents, and personalities and, yes, there are differences of opinion. But at CoSo the norm is to keep disagreements respectful. Want a platform without ads that doesn’t track your online behavior & monetize you? Don’t come to CoSo. But if you’ve been looking for a social media platform that over delivers in amenities and attracts truly interesting and thoughtful people, Counter Social is the place to be.

I dropped out of Zuck’s RW media site a few years ago. Was exclusively posting on the bird site but it was ruled by bots, trolls and crypto pushers. I was CoSo curious after seeing someone recommend it so I checked it out. I was among many who fled the bird the week the buy out was announced. I was truly impressed how quickly J got on top of it and made space for a groundswell of new members. His attentiveness is truly appreciated. There are people there for whatever your interest is. Don’t see them? Make a hashtag and they will come. CoSo folks are the most welcoming, helpful, people I’ve found in social media. No bots, rarely a troll to be seen, no ads (it’s member supported). I’ve found my place to talk to people worldwide and in my backyard and I’m happy.

I had been longing for a good online communal space for a really long time. I was tired of the hateful hateful people on FB and Twitter. When I found Counter Social is was like a breath of fresh air. The community of people there are so kind, caring, and able to ha e actual discussions about things that matter. Having the ability to also use filters helps me choose the context I want to see and knowing there aren’t ads or algorithms that force me to see what the app wants me to see instead of content I want to see, makes this a great place to spend my social online time. Oh and the fact that there aren’t bots either further makes it a safe, fun, and caring environment. If you are looking to simply replace Twitter or FB but want the same atmosphere of those places, stay where you are. If you want something different, something focused on kind connections and caring interactions, Counter Social may be the perfect place for you.
