cohost is a social media microblogging platform

Damn...this looks really good actually. I'm sad to day I never heard of cohost until now. But I'll admit I just identify with the founder's sentiments around the tech industry, and their strict adherence to moral values around how a platform like that should interact with their users. I wish their developers all the best in looking for new work.

After reading this, it's pretty obvious that Stripe killed it by drastically changing its policy around in-site currency, which could've helped them a lot. What a shame. In the brief time I was on Cohost, I have seen a lot of interesting content over there. People were coding entire games inside of posts, something you can't do on Tumblr nowadays. And the atmosphere was much more free, untethered and welcoming.

Sad to hear but probably good to cut losses - Reminded me of an old Post from earlier. Props to anyone who can make it work.

I feel bad for not hearing about it until now. This looks and sounds amazing. Too bad it was killed by stripe and tight budgets.

Why do I only learn about so many cool things when they shut down?
