Why nobody really has conversation here on #nostr ? Plenty of quips and quotes, but in-depth technical conversations about cryptography or bitcoin do not exist. I love the spirit, but was expecting more bitcoin devs and hackers, but it’s more like twitter of bitcoin with people focusing on personalities and 99% of posts are not in depth. Might as well have a character limit, because nobody reads long posts. I’ve only gotten reactions from short quips, and my questions go unanswered in #asknostr so I’m wondering is it just a case of small crowd? Do I need to add a hundred relays to actually get conversation with someone about software or protocols? I have 8 relays in there now. I love nostr but I’m confused about its purpose. I want to help #grownostr but my first recommendation would be for everyone to open up a bit more and talk, so new people see a vibrant community having conversations.

Hey nostr. I think I’m getting the hang of it here. I’m a bitcoin lunatic with nobody in the real world to discuss with. I finally jumped into bitcoin in 2017 after watching the movie “Dope”. Interesting movie for bitcoiners to check out, btw. I didn’t understand the ending, so I searched online for an explanation and went head first down the rabbit hole. I was no stranger to cryptography, so I was able to orange pill myself in a couple hours online reading. I saw this movie just as bitcoin was hitting the 2K milestone in May of 2017, so it was on the news and there was excitement. I promptly sold everything of value I had and went all in and have been hodling strong through every up and down ever since, happy to be of service #introductions

with such a low bar of entry, no central command to suspend accounts, and total anonymity, how does nostr keep the place so nice? Why are trolls not coming in to ruin this if nobody can stop them? I’m thrilled about the community I’ve found here, but wonder how we keep it from being vandalized? #asknostr
