Social media options

Putting in a plug for Post. It's civil, smart, kind. Many of our faves are there. And media content creators get kickbacks. You can tip them or they might require payment to get through paywall!

Someone even tipped me yesterday!

Any other posters here?

Gave you a tip.

How does the point system work? Do you need points to read any article or post? How do you gain more points?
What effects the things you see in your feed?

If you can get to Wallet in your profile, it tells you the price and you can buy them there. Points get you through paywalls, like Reuters, New Yorker, USA Today. Most have no paywall. Money goes to content creator!

You choose hashtag topics in your profile, too. Banner across top takes you to topics in your feed. "Following" is my landing page.

If you want a post to show up in a topic, you add the hashtag for the topic, e.g., #kindness - one i selected. 🙂 Maybe that's how twit works?

Did you find me there? See my last post? #comfortzone

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
