"Bitcoin is its own asset class" > "There is no second best"

An encouraging write-up, cheers 🍻 I would add that even as a dev it's not necessarily realistic to expect being able to start shipping code straight away in a new FOSS project. Time in the project > timing the project. This doesn't make any sense but it doesn't matter. Go get it pleb, consistency is key ✌️ All frustrations will fade away in time.

It would be pretty funny if X started showing Nostr notes alongside tweets to get more free (as in gratis) content on the platform. Would it be net positive or net negative for Nostr? On the surface X might appear more appealing now, especially to the users who have been using both in parallel. So, now Reddit does the same thing. All major platforms follow suit. More free content for all the big platforms. Now the X users who realise the benefits of Nostr start asking questions like "if we can all see the same notes, why am I not seeing Reddit posts on X?" The conversation inevitably goes to "Pure Nostr is the only way to truly interoperate between apps". The barriers to entry are 10x lower on Nostr compared to big social media platforms. With the Nostr UX rivaling big social media apps it's not a huge leap to leave the legacy social media once and for all when problems such as account restrictions happen. We've already seen major exoduses (exodi?) to Nostr before. I think there will be a time when legacy social media platforms have majorly more frictions than Nostr. Just enough to make the change appealing.
