Totally get it. I haven't exactly "come out" fully on Nostr either but only because it is still a strange beast to me with lots of kinks, I have concerns about some aspects, and I can't settle on a wallet (nor set up my Primal one for some reason).
I really resonate with a lot of what you post, though I'm not terribly interactive. I struggle with the "who'd care anyway" which is an interesting dimension of ego. And do I really want to spend my time here trying to get people to do so?
I'm glad you're willing to be human, even at the risk of receiving strange advices and platitudes. So tired of "perfect and plastic". Much more genuine to be elastic.. Thanks for being refreshing!

Thank you very much for this.
I did not even realize this was a kind of "coming out" until you named it. I understand the whole idea behind it is to choose to assert myself no matter if somebody cares or not. It is actually mostly about being true to myself...
Nostr helps me in the sense that here more than anywhere else online I can feel the possibility and freedom to be myself, because being uncensorable is rooted in the protocol and expressed by many people here.
Of course I want to be seen and loved, and find people I resonate with, and you make me feel just that. But at the same time it is a bonus in the process!
My smoothest experience with wallet and nostr was using coinos.io and connecting it via nostr wallet connect on Amethyst, if it helps!
