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.

This does not sounds good. I've probably heard about them before. Sad to see another project go.

A shame to see competition dwindle.

They tried, that’s what counts. The vast majority of people who can do this only dream, even me.

And it’s not a cost barrier ( especially if your instances scale up) so much as low morale

Yeah and hopefully they inspire more people to try things out and see where they go.

That would be good

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.

What is it? I didn't really understand what they do from reading it.
