Kate: I quit counter dot social when I asked someone to tag a gruesome news article with something, anything, to protect the SA, DV, etc communities. He told me that a #news tag was sufficient, and I was a weirdo (derogatory) for even asking.

Tbf I also like posting stuff without having to write out content warnings for things like “eye contact” and “clouds.”

Bluesky is where people come when they’re sick of Twitter’s bullshit, but can’t figure out Mastodon.

I went to their sister site, Counter.Social. Was a paying member, too, considered it a good business investment. Then I got called a pedophile and dog-piled because I had purchased Blue as a business decision. I pulled my membership, and cancelled my account there.
