    Ich hab 2011 eine 2-monatige #Radtour nach #Irland und zurück gemacht, da habe ich fast nur #Couchsurfing genutzt. :mastolove:

    Wenn ihr mögt, erzählt mir eure. Welche Begegnung hat euch gezeigt, dass die Welt oft viel herzlicher ist, als wir denken?

    Ich freue mich darauf, sie zu lesen. ❤️

  4. Also zieht los. Verlasst die ausgetretenen Wege. Seid neugierig. Hört zu. Lasst euch überraschen.

    Und ab und zu macht das Internet einfach aus.

    Lasst euch treiben.

    Denn die schönsten Geschichten findet man selten dort, wo man sie gesucht hat. ❤️

    It takes all kinds! I did a fair amount of #couchsurfing and hosted about 50+ travellers, and was lucky to only have one weird host, and a few annoying but harmless surfers. But, you never know. The review system definitely helps to filter out the worst of the bunch.

    I was an early adopter of #couchsurfing but when I wanted to check more information about my account (hosted at least 50 people), I had to subscribe. I know that I gave them money to do that, but I had the same issue again today. I deleted my account, which meant deleting the dozens of references and memories that surfers had shared. They changed their model from hippies on sofas to a corporate AirB&B or Uber model. Sad.

  9. I thought I was getting authentic stays. Instead, I got 90% creepy messages 😬 Here's what I learned about Couchsurfing safety

  14. Well the new #couchsurfing app has one perk, I am starting to chat with all the lovely people I met in the last year, discussing what alternatives they have tried 🙄 but also catching up 😊

  16. Look who crawled out from under the stone, it's #Couchsurfing! I didn't even remember I had still subscribed to their blog (thanks feed readers). I had subscribed years ago because I wanted to see if they apologized for or explained their last dick move somewhen. There were no posts until yesterday, when they pulled their next dick move. Summary: You can login, click through their new onboarding with fake data, then export your data and delete your account, at least this much was done this time.

  18. @dineinfr @michal.bryxi More than welcome to pop by. I’m super happy to host & show people around - #CouchSurfing / #WarmShowers are my 🫶 platforms

  20. #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

  22. #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!

  24. I've heard that couchsurfing. com has released really shitty updates.
    There are beautiful alternatives:
    couchers.org/
    trustroots.org/
    bewelcome.org/
    completely free of charge and with less creeps

  25. #CouchSurfing is no longer free? What the actual fuck why is a service charging for connecting fucking free hosts with fucking free guests? Absolute dogshit behaviour

  26. @tazgetroete wie wäre es mit Alternativen, die den anfänglichen #couchsurfing Spirit immer noch vorleben und weitertragen?
    In dem #handelsfreiVerzeichnis werden genau solche Projekte gesammelt, die weiterhin #handelsfrei sind und nicht den rutschigen Hang in Richtung #Kommerz gehen: verzeichnis.handelsfrei.org/?s…

    #Couchsurfing used to have a vouch system which worked a bit like this (once you'd been vouched for x times you could vouch for other people)

Meanwhile, the #Bomfather, clearly aspiring to be the Godfather of tech blogs, remains blissfully unaware of the irony in decrying AI while dominating the internet with a hand-drawn vengeance 🖍️🤦‍♂️."

  33. The case of Trustroots alongside the earlier issue of #CouchSurfing are a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of traditional feudalistic #FOSS foundation/ #NGO models for open-source projects. The mess we keep making of #FOSS governance hamishcampbell.com/the-mess-we

  35. A thank you card to lovely hosts and new friends made while bussing around in the Scottish Highlands. I was lucky enough to visit them again a year later and found my card on their fridge 🥰⛰️

  36. Was für verrückte Menschen es gibt! Seit sie hier ist, hat sie sich praktisch ausschliesslich um ihren jet lag gekümmert und war gestern quasi 24 Stunden im Bett, hat nichts gegessen ( ich habe extra vegetarisch für sie gekocht). Aber heute Nacht hat sie die ganze Dose Kokosmakronen leer gegessen, die ich letzte Woche gebacken hatte ( vielleicht erinnert ihr Euch an das Experiment).
    Wow, #couchsurfing ist eindeutig zu aufregend für mich!¨
