Idk who needs to hear this, but you don't really need marketers until your product is fully ship ready when your product is also service. Signed an executive marketing director.

Getting a lot of comments that basically say all the issues and suggestions people have are for clients, not nostr and this mentality is a block. Nostr is just a bunch of nodes sitting in the dark without clients. User interaction with the protocol is all that matters after you have the protocol set up and a network of relays. That's the foundation and it's great. (This is mirrored in Bitcoin, same mental block) making your clients useable and useful is everything, especially social apps which are a jump off point to everything else. You have all built a great beginning and I want to see it succeed. Marketing is easy. Making a product people will use is hard.

Gm, the path is wide open, keep reaching for your goals. #artstr

If it doesn't work as and it's not being used as designed, it's a failure. You can either iterate, redefine the use case, or give up. That is truth, that is reality, that is heresy. Bring on the stones. 🪨

That Milei got the votes, they were counted, and reported and his opponent conceded is all the hope I need. Anything more is whipped topping and I hope he does much more.

🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴 Milei wins!

You don't have to like any individual weirdo founder to understand how bad EA and doomer capture is for innovation. They won't win in the end, they can't, because of decentralization. The enemy of my enemy isn't my friend, but I'm capable of siding with them temporarily if it helps show people the way.

Took a nap today and missed tech 9/11

Good afternoon #artstr

Journeys #artstr

Maybe the thing that took 5+ years and angels and VCs to take off isn't the roadmap to follow for growth. 🤷 🤍 -community building is- inclusion, recognition, giving people a job, sharing a variety of interests, skill swapping, reward/value, then meet ups and celebrations. -marketing is- how is it different? How is it different in ways people care about? Is it easy to use, fun, interesting, exciting? What's the hook? -building is- organization. Find and put your talent to work. Compartmentalize task groups. Separate discussion topics. (Discord does this very well, IDK what nostr has like this)

Life is an endless playground if you know where to look.

Finally read Slaughterhouse Five. I think I'll have to read the rest of Kurt's novels now (I generally stick to nonfiction). And so it goes.
