#Nostr is a solution to a problem most people still don’t realize exists.

So true. It’s extremely complex and we tend to try and simplify it by pointing to one thing. In my opinion, Nostr is many things, to many different people, and will solve many problems.
Same with #bitcoin
That's why I think it's a little early to walk off other social media. Instead, stop by occasionally and invite people to Nostr, especially people complaining about other social networks.
My guess is you haven’t spent enough time engaging here yet. Follow #plebchain, put a Lightning address in your profile, and contribute to the conversation. #[4] is just one of many clients, and everything is being built while we’re using it.
Damus is amazing! #[4] and team are developing such a fantastic space. Give it a chance. Setup zaps ⚡️ too so I can zap you. That’s my favorite part of Nostr/Damus.
Ask us questions if you need help. ⚡️💜🙏
Much like #bitcoin, people will likely only flock to nostr once they experience censorship themselves, which is a matter of when, not if.
Every time I try to use any other social media service I feel a huge sense of disappointment and disgust. I don’t want to be part of those conversations and arguments, and I don’t want to give my time and energy to algorithms that extract and sell my data. I put my npub in my profiles and walked away.
Why did #[3] chose to format replies so poorly example: 
Totally agree, it will definitely be a catalyst.
Some threads are incompatible between clients. Amethyst will create threads that damus won’t be able to reconstruct properly :( its a mess.
Can this be solved by implementing a unified thread standard? All the devs are here, should be a way to find consensus.
Yeah it’s called nip10 but there are two variations and they aren’t always implemented correctly.
That feels like a kinda big hurtle for the moment…

Standards
I hear that, but if you have developed relationships and trust they are depending on you to lead the way.
Of course, I cannot speak to your particular situation.
Meanwhile, peer group pressure can't be overstated in some people's transitions.
Personally, I have a number of people that are part of the freedom movement, that I want to both continue engaging with and continue to influence them to come here.
I can only show them the door, I can’t make anyone walk through it. 
💯 Absolutely.
Can you explain more about this. As a user it just always confused me why Damus’s threads were so unintuitive whereas amethyst at least you can read what’s being replied to. Isn’t it the same data you’re pulling down from relays?
Omg literally… just made a request for more explanation on your last reply because your Ui didn’t show me you already expanded on it…
Reddit solved this. All reply threads in comments are fully expanded and nested by default (down to a certain depth and excluding spam), and users can easily collapse any comment and all replies nested under it. Users can sort the whole reply list by various criteria, for example here could be sorted by most zapped by default but user adjustable to be most recent or whatever else you cook up
So many people are mentally fatigued, but I’m hopeful they realize the importance of uncensorable speech and value transfer. Caveat- my faith in humanity is at an all time low though, post pandemic. I would not be shocked to see ThaaS-Thinking As A Service, offered and accepted by the masses.
Yes damus sucks thanks for continually pointing that out. I am only one person and am trying to make damus less bad over time, thanks for your patience.
On the contrary, Damus is the best iOS nostr app I’ve used :) and I use it daily and appreciate it ☺️
I don’t think Damus sucks at all.
It’s awesome
lol damus is the only client I’ve been using 😂😂
I like Damus.
I’m happy to make bounties to fund for things like this but idk haven’t seen that being a way Damus is developed so idk where I can make impact anyway, funds don’t seem to be the issue just need time and devs
No I don’t think Damus sucks. Some functionality needs more time to fine tune and develop than the others.
Other clients have good features, good for them but Damus has its own uniqueness, I’m using Damus from day 1 and I have no complaints.
#[6] thanks for your unfailing efforts, we appreciate this so much 🥹🥹
it will get better! i see it improving already. amazing work
Dito
I’ll look into the other clients. Do profile information transfer from client to client?
yes
I think it’s the same for #Bitcoin. Most people don’t see the need yet.
Yes, Damus sucks so bad, I deleted my twitter account. I never posted a single tweet because I had no trust in twitter.
Damus sucks so bad I cannot stop yapping on it. 🤣🤣🤣
I hope you like my humor……..
You have revolutionized social media, and I appreciate everything you have done!
Thank you!
Wonderful 🔥🫡 and thanks for your hard work 🤝😤💪
Keep your chin up , sir. I’m still new to Nostr, Damus, and Bitcoin, but am very impressed with Damus. The greatest things that impact society for the better are never crafted overnight. It’s a long slog but keep with it! Sincerely, appreciative newb
Had tried all of them, Damus has the nicest features and has evolved very quickly and improved steadily. That was a compliment, #[6] 👋🏽:)
🙏
Thank you for all the hard work! Damus has improved in months what most teams take years to achieve
Damus is awesome and gets better at a mind blowing rate!
Most of us seriously appreciate everything you’re doing here. Fuck the haters.
Damus is amazing and I’m very grateful that you built this free for everyone.
Lies
Birds have taken an oath not to, right?
Wait, there’s a team? I thought it was a solo act.
Me too. Tried iris via a browser on a pc. Not any better.
Yes #[6] did all the translation work, #[7] has made the app look and feel a lot better. #[8] has implemented profile picture uploading, made the profile view nicer, and lots of other stuff. #[9] did image and video uploading, and many other things. #[10] has done lots of image performance optimizations. Its open source, anyone can join and contribute code.
Windows pc. Talk about something that sucks. Took 3+ decades to get a decent os from Microsoft. Damus has plenty of time to get better
Yes it does 🔥🔥
Hard disagree, it took them three decades to ruin windows completely, 3.1 was baller.
3.1 was an app on dos.
If that is how you respond to me we need to first define operating system and application.
Hard to define when all executables are basically the same structure. In the case of windows 3.1, the os that was booted up was dos. All the exception handlers etc. the ui was an app started by a batch file ran by dos. And it was replaceable. If the dos that was in 3.1 is the os you refer too, you are right. Very solid. The windows apps, not so much.
