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 of cohost and anti software software club due to lack of funding and burnout. As of today, none of us are being paid for our labor1; all of our money in the ban...
Never heard of it, but it sounds like it was a great place. Sad to see it fail against established giants of the internet. I would've been interested in trying it out before the end.
I think this is a problem that multiple small realities like this (including Lemmy) are facing. There are people interested in them, but they don't know them, so they can't join.
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.
