GFY my friend, I franly think that social as now, even nostr-as-twitter-replacement is bad for most people, or at least for me. I'm here experimenting and living the social aspect of nostr day-to-day while I'm studying the tech and undertanding what happening here. I think I will quit from this usage of nostr in next weeks, but I found here a real good set of tech that is just too good. @npub10r8x...t2p8 will still be my main source of apps because is better than alternatives and can only become better; when @Keychat will be mature I think will be the optimal way to do dms cause the clever design choices, better than anything else; I'm super bullish on doing coinjoin using nostr keys for the possibility of integrations that offer, like the @npub1v6qj...nzyr electrum add-on or wasabi coinjoin implementation; @calvadev⚡️ shopstr integrates the best technologies to create one, if not the most, important thing for free society: finally good, private, scalable, uncensorable FREE markets. There are a lot of other projects that I'm too dumb to even understand. Hangout/shitposting with a twitter-like client is just the welcoming-hub. As I lived well without a twitter account before, I will live well without coming here everyday loosing too much time on thi social network. But I will use nostr.

nostr is like a weed, it will persist because of the fact that no other protocol has enabled real decentralized social networking, and the stubborn hard core who will be nostr or death are not going anywhere else, most of us, the elders, perhaps you might call us, who have been in internet social networks since the 90s, will all say the same thing: every social network gets captured, nostr lacks the levers that let those all get captured sure, maybe some cluster of relays and clients will get captured, but there will always be the dirty wild proles outside the gates of the walled gardens, and we will run our own relays and build our own clients, with our own time and effort and mainly for ourselves and to enable connecting to other stubborn bitches like ourselves it is true that social networks can be unhealthy addictions but when the control levers are missing, the harm is less, and the benefits greater because they are not being squashed to trade off for the interests of those who want to shape opinions and feed off advertising budgets
