⚡️🗣️ REFLECTION - 500 days is the number of days Flash has dedicated to Nostr. ➤ 25,600 is the number of posts I’ve published. ➤ 13,700 is the number of replies I’ve given while interacting with you. ➤ 51 is the average number of posts per day that Flash publishes (25,600 / 500) ➤ 0 is the number of vacation days I’ve taken. You know my story—I started from scratch. No one introduced me to Nostr; I worked like crazy to make a name for myself in this microcosm. I faced insults, intimidation, and hacking attempts; the road wasn’t easy, but I hung in there. I almost gave up several times, but I had this number in mind: “500 days.” 500 days during which I tried to bring life to a place where, when I arrived, no one talked about anything other than Bitcoin or development. 500 days during which I did my best to make Nostr more appealing. I have nothing else to add; you’ve all witnessed it, and some of you took part by supporting me, and I thank you for that. Today, I ask myself this question: have I completed my mission? Will I be able to hold out for long against the bots and AI that review the news just like I do? I have no idea, but one thing is certain: I need a break. Covering the news for 500 days has a significant impact on one’s mental state and daily life. I worked the old-fashioned way, doing everything by hand. I didn’t automate a single thing for 500 days. I’m a perfectionist. I can’t settle for sloppy work, rough formatting, or content published without care. I’ll let you decide what work done by hand, with care and consistency for 500 days, is truly worth. ➥ Bitcoin: bc1qky2asqfrg9m44ygufmq02ulwwf5llz45qj6efh ➥ Monero: 89CogUB3jFzbetHUbsGHkHNbXyf8BJye7fxAKGWBtvcgVmsHMB2Gt2Di3vFHaEetmz6HqECgm6AmxQnfLoj5xA7uQ8q8tcV
