Thanks for the advice Ben.

it's a 0-1 moment
Seems like good advice from a trustworthy fellow. I shall give it a try
thanks for liking it 🤝
gmi
did it work?
Looking good so far 😂🤞🏻
I'm not trying to grow my nostr I simply add accounts which I find interesting so that I have a nice feed with good stuff
Best way to find these people? In the comments
Great point... I'll keep it mind
This may be sound advice
The fact that this post got twice more comments than likes is mind-blowing! Well played 🙌🏻
This is true. I comment often on people posts it's fun and engaging.
fkn will get out of my way tho
🫡
point proven then
🤝
Which client best promotes conversations?
someone needs to do science on it to be sure
we fkn did it
woah
game on
it's th future
ooof idk
I use primal
This I do a lot, actually. Can't blame you for that.
That’s a great point! 💡
blame me harder
smart words gud
Plus commenting is way easier. I always struggle coming up with something original and interesting to share. Maybe I just too self conscious/ self filtering.
Is this true? 🤨🤨
just send it bro
(but also it's not for everyone)
try it
[insert comment here]
do it
Good point 😉
😂 ur the best winemaker I know brother.
Everyone here is making the same joke haha. Shows how much we all agree
omgomgomg

Makes sense : )
Hi

following along for the shower thoughts
niceeeeee
I dont
You should see how many people blocked me on nostr after commenting on a nostr influencers profile. She was not happy 😆
sounds like u were being a dick?
Shouldn't that be a big concern of all of them, then, if your point is valid?
An opinion is like a ass hole. Everyone has one. Some are better then others. Some people eat that shit raw from the source 😂
find the one that works best for you. I use primal and have used others. primal is my fav rn
Thanks for the tip. I appreciate all the posts here that can help increase my knowledge in this space

If you're trying to grow your NOSTR profile and are focused on posting new content, you're missing out.
commenting on other people's stuff is the way
think about it. there's no Discovery tool for people to find new accounts that are posting and everyone who is posting is starving for engagement.
This has been the same for growing an account on X, but it's even more drastic here.

Great tip Ben, I will be ordering a few cases of wine, let’s chat to work something out!
Me, too, it's one of my main go-tos.
That's interesting. I didn't know that was crucial to growing your Nostr profile. Thanks for the tip!
IM JUST POSTING HERE TO BE SEEN!
why put crypto in ur name?
It's hard for anyone to find you otherwise
sell out
thanks 👍
Yes this is the way. Still need original content as well otherwise why would someone follow a profile.
Having said that- here is my shameless plug : follow me for great cycling related content 🚵🚲
wen MTN bike?
Im here
Sounds like an opportunity to build content discovery app 🤔
nice
💯
🍷
interesting perspective 🤔... benny likey
Ben 🤝 Benny
If I don’t get 1+ follow, this is fake news!
rooting for you 🤝
1 tap zaps are dangerous lol
I love your message with it 🫡
nice to meet you BenJ! your checkmark got me jealous so I went and got my own bennyverified checkmark.
bennyVerifiedx2 👌
Nice to meet you all #nostr #plebchain
I'm not really focused on creating any profile here at Nostr. Just sharing some of "my stuff" and thoughts with whoever shows up. I like to pop in at least once a day for a few moments. I'll post something, share something, zap someone and repost something.
Ben's will take over NOSTR.
lfg
we already have 🤝
Posting comments in others' posts creates network.
Post on your own profile doesn't.
Create network is the way.
💯
This was how twitter grew so big in the beginning.
yes
Sorry i mean 🍷🥩
LOL
Seeing people coming here and doom posting trying to get a following is really sad. If we want to make a real difference, that isn't the way.
LFG!
I like to reply... Is that what the recent reply guy bot is doing? building up a social graph by just replying to everything with an echo script?
Got me to reply
Agreed 😄
Folks,
@Ben Justman🍷 is right.
Seems like good, insightful advice to follow!
Most engagement I got as someone with little to no social media track record is indeed through this method
Well played!
Well said sir! 🤘😎🤘
He ain't lying!
😄
I am new and this post made me realize that this was the case. Thanks. It wasn't in the manual.
Pay it forward 👌
Any programmers in here? Happy to connect! 💻
Taken to heart.
One thing is true, the comment section is worth reading in Nostr when the main post is a good one. Still not populated by hate, idiocy or spam. Hope it stays that way.
wise words !
I concur
Excellent point well presented
It's a better place for discussion rather than making announcements, especially when compared to X.
I'm commenting
It's all about the ratio. I just did a massive purge of my follows and got rid of bad ratio people 🚮
Thanks for sharing!
Ben, thanks for this. One odd thing I found after reading this is that the number of replies to your post shows 116, however I am only seeing 15. I know we’re early but… is thing thing working or does it need new spark plugs?
I don't see very many comments here either
Cheers.
agree, but Nostr is gonna change SO MUCH
OMG THANK YOU
depends on your following
nice work there
Like this?
maybe y'all aren't connecting to big enough relays? maybe it's a data saving option from your client. maybe you have a setting turned on to only see followers comments.
idk y'all, but it's not a spam filter issue
lol sure, but use something other than telegram
💯
get em
Maybe not just a random comment. But a comment that gives value 😉
Word!!! 🙏 great advice
I believe it takes time for most nostr users to realize this.
The discovery problem on nostr is similar to the internet before Google
If I need some wine Ben, you’re the man
my man 🫡
I’m giving out free #sats for anyone who is just starting out, check out my profile, comment on the thread and I’ll #zap you no questions asked
I concur…
This is actually how I’ve built a reputation (maybe not so many followers) on the old school social platforms.
Just engaging with other humans and providing value when I can
#v4v
#valueforvalue
@SF Hodl thanks for the generous #zap
Keep being authentic.🦾
#thanks for the compliment
just trying to serve and add #v4v #valueforvalue
lfg ⚡🤗🤗💕
I’m happy using that name because it’s true. I am old and love Crypto. I always knew the financial system was corrupt but had no idea how corrupt
The penny dropped when I read The Bitcoin Standard and Lyn Alden’s “Broken money”
you lived those books and still do crypto??
