#COUCHERS.org = 73,000 accounts
vs.
#COUCHSURFING = 12,000,000,000 accounts(ok the older CS inactive % is prob much higher due to age of site - but still more people active in early years than couchers and new signups prob)
73K is not enough vs #Couchsurfing 12MIL (or even half that) but hey it's a better #site + #ethics

#COUCHSURFING YES changed to #subscription #businessmodel in May #2020 so it was during the #COVID-19 pandemic, so that's a bad example for me to say (as it's an ultimatum to subscribe) but people STILL TO THIS DAY PAY and signup !
And to to #couchers surfing because #wordofmouth or active encouragement on other platforms DOESN'T EXIST MUCH!
So if any of you have a decent contact for #couchers - then encourage them to talk here / do the people work!

*BUT PEOPLE EVEN PAY TIL NOW AS THEY HAVE A PEOPLE BASE! Couchers doesn't have much at all (73,000 people)

@ConsumoQueSuma @ElSaltoDiario
Muchas dejamos #Couchsurfing
La plataforma libre gratuita gestionada por voluntarioado, más grande del mundo es https://www.bewelcome.org/
No es la única. Si quieres #viajar diferente y crear contactos con las personas locales te recomiendo usar #BeWelcome o otras como #TrustRoots, #Couchers, #WarmShowers (para ciclistas) , o #Worldpackers (que ofrece alternativas de voluntariado). -
CW: Help Exchange Networks + Hospitality (Couchsurfing + List)
2 things
(1) Hospitality systems / Couchsurfing etc
Free Room / No Rent systems
#Couchsurfing still good example
( almost 'died' or took a dive when they introduced pay-gate ) but still there and others try copy better like #Couchers Couchers.org(2) #HelpX description below - great from just the idea
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HelpXHelpX or "Help Exchange" is a barter platform in which people offer or receive homestays, including lodging and food, in exchange for performing a pre-agreed few hours each day or even nothing but enjoying time together.
Types of work include gardening, animal welfare, cooking, and farming, assistant, extra pair of hands among other things.
NOTE: Couchsurfing for example can be just for fun allowing people to come for a few nights / keep us company / learn new things / show them around town / meet for drinks / arrange meetups and walks ETC!...
