I wished good things for cohost, it was doing a lot of neat stuff. I made an account and poked around but I've been down this road before so I was waiting to see if it stood the test of time (and also I'm still on tumblr lol). I always want these kinds of projects to succeed even when they're not quite for me, more places for people to choose between is better than fewer. It's sad. I really hope someone figures out how to sustain a non-tiny modern social media site that isn't owned by a huge megacorp someday. Or that the culture shifts enough that "pay $/month to be allowed to upload images" becomes a normal thing people don't balk at (can't imagine this happening but who knows)

When tumblr finally dies someday I'll be so fucking sad. In that event I really want there to be somewhere to go to that isn't another twitter clone. F
