Majority control of the cohost source code will be transferred to the person who funded the majority of our operations, as per the terms of the funding documents we signed with them; Colin and I will retain small stakes so we have some input on what happens to it, at their request.

Being very careful never to mention this person's name. What multimillionaire is out there debt-trapping devs to get hold of social media site code?

cohost dot org used to be the only place where 100% of all posts on #enderdragon were nsfw

might as well dump my little doodles in here like how i did back in cohost. i've never actively used tumblr until now, so let's see if this site is as terrible as everyone claims to be. my psyche is ready

update (2026-03-07): Get me out

Attention cohost expats: your reminder that I have made a forum for fellow chosties, and now it lives on its own shiny new domain.

quick cohost.org update

haven't posted about it here in a hot second but things are still happening at cohost

we finished activating everyone in the waiting queue today, which means that sign ups are effectively open! there's still a day long waiting period between signing up and being able to post (it's a spam prevention measure) but there's never been a better time to sign up

that's all thanks

cohost to shut down at end of 2024

also the August 2024 financial update, but I’m trying not to bury the lede. Hi everyone, We have come to the decision to cease operations

October 1, 2024: cohost will become read-only. all cohost plus subscriptions will be cancelled. account deletions will remain available.

starting October 1, 2024: we will begin processing data exports for all users. we expect this process to take some time. once your export is ready, you will receive an e-mail with a link to download it. data export downloads will remain available until the servers shut down on December 31.

December 31, 2024: cohost will go fully offline. all user data will be deleted on our way out the door.

January 1, 2025: we will set cohost.org to redirect to the wayback machine to prevent link rot. this is something we will be paying for out of pocket since ASSC will no longer be an operating concern, but it’s max $100 per year total so it’s fine.
