For those wondering WTF Cohost is, or soon to be was, there's a Wikipedia article which answers some of that:
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cohost https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cohost>
- dmonitor 2y agoDoes Wikipedia allow for an article to change its tense from "is" to "will have been" before it reaches "was"?
- dredmorbius 2y agoThe article presently notes in its lede 'graph that the service "will be discontinued at the end of 2024". Which works for me. I've seen several similar pending-shutdown notices for other sites/services.
- floren 2y agoWell it sounds like a lot of work to turn a readable and correct article (since it still "is" all of those things) into a very tortuous if somewhat slightly more technically-correct version... so I assume there are already half a dozen bots and obsessive Wikipedia users devoted to doing just that.
- codetrotter 2y agoCurrent intro of Wikipedia article: > Cohost (stylized in all lowercase letters as cohost or cohost!) is a social media website publicly launched in June 2022[1] that is currently in beta, and will be discontinued at the end of 2024[2]. And right you were!
- SahAssar 2y agoIf that was the case wouldn't the same be true for basically any physical thing? > The universe was (and perhaps was not), is, will be for the foreseeable future (of which the timespan is indeterminate) and might become (with perhaps a period of not being) all of space and time and their contents. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe
