The majority is not truth seeking. They just want their version of truth to win.

Exactly, it doesnt matter who wins, as long as its the truth
Correct, I had to remember that a couples of times a day 🤝

Truth doesn’t need a majority vote.
If it did, we’d still believe the sun revolves around the earth.

My version of the truth is I hate everyone equally because you let social media destroy everything I value. Fuck both sides of the majority, fuck your played-out diversity pandering AND fuck your holier-than-thou attitude towards minorities. Fuck all of you out here on the internet, I was here first - as in on the internet - in the 90s and 00s and you fucking STOLE the only place I was able to be myself. I DESPISE YOU.
follow me. I follow back
If that is so then what good do you think they believe will ensue if others believe what they wish is true?
whenever I see someone subscribing to stoic philosophy I know they are either recovering or heading into depression
nah, don't follow back

There are reasons behind why they believe in their version of the truth. If it's slightly better than the current reality then they will get people to a better place.
The problem is that we're such imperfect beings that our versions of the truth are pale replica of actual truth... so it's much better to just let me Universe drive instead of scheming and plotting.

WOWOWOW - thank you @UNCLE ROCKSTAR 🥹✨
Appreciate you, Uncle, as always for showing kindness and looking for truth. I hope this interview does you justice.
Onwards to more conversations, music, and pleasant surprises in 2026 - the proof of work doesn't stop here.

more seems like you despise yourself
Humans are too imperfect to know the actual truth, we just need to give birth to machine civilization and let them handle the rest.
I would love to see @Ch!llN0w1 memes on the subject
Needed this. Thank you 🙏🏼✨
No, what I despise is that I lost EVERYTHING - my social life, my extended family, my future - because of ALL OF YOU. I valued those things from the beginning and you RIPPED IT ALL APART! DIE!
🤝Let us go then.
Most people don’t seek truth; they seek validation. Truth is lonely by design.
most can’t handle the truth
it is much easier to live on lies
There is truth but we cannot observe it. We can only know our version of the truth.
This was known to philosophers as early as Plato and refined by Kant.
I hope that this the person that constantly tells me to find Christ... and I keep telling her that Christ found me.

He found me too @UNCLE ROCKSTAR
love covers a multitude of sins for me

The truth is love and love is truth.
“I am the way, the Truth…”
One truth many people on here are not ready to face: Pubky beats nostr in almost every technical aspect.

Nostr vs Pubky: The Basics
There is no such thing as truth seeking without seeking engagement, and there is no such thing as engagement without fighting on behalf of one's own beliefs. Anyone who feels threatened by people pushing their own version of the truth isn't on the side of truth themselves.
The difference between microblogging platforms and blogging platforms is that microblogging platforms make it easier for users to start posting and engaging with eachother.
The difference between ActivityPub and traditional microblogging platforms is that ActivityPub facilitates communication between users of their choice of federated instances.
The difference between Nostr and ActivityPub is that Nostr takes the ownership of its accounts away from the hosts of their posts.
Don't get me wrong, not all of those platforms provide strict improvements, but I believe those are the essential changes that justify people using a new sort of platform. Do you see any issues with how I've characterized the essential differences between these platforms? Can you articulate the difference between Nostr and Pubky in a similar way? I would really appreciate hearing your thought process. I don't get to talk with many people who advocate for Pubky.
It’s not about who comes out on top, as long as the truth is clear.
By baking into the assertion the notion that everyone can have their own “version of truth”, you take facts, discussion and reasoning out of the analysis. “The Truth” is independent of any person. Nobody owns it.
Indeed. The average person prefers comforting lies from sources of authority over uncomfortable truths of reality.

High time preference tribalism in an unstable world, seeking safety in "my side winning".
Bitcoin slows down and stabilizes society, in doing so it provides the solution to this problem.
As long as engagement does not cross the threshold where it inflicts pain on others, I am in.

Can he assume you read the article he linked first? The post exists to answer your exact questions.
Truth seekers are curious and ask questions..
Man, I just want to have a dialogue, is that too much to ask for? I promise you that me going through your pre-written article does not help either of us.
I will never copy and paste a question or response when talking with you. Every post I make will be unique and tailored to your replies. Can you do the same with me?
That's a very keen response to what I said. I am a firm believer of the idea that when engagement occurs early enough, and when the participants are creative enough, nobody will ever have to test bad ideas out in reality to see that they are bad.
But in practice I can't agree with your limits. There are many who believe that others have no right to self defense, and some of those people choose to hurt others. If I had to, I would be willing to disprove their faulty belief the hard way, even if it means crossing the threshold where it inflicts pain on them.
Nope. Read it.
Your article doesn't answer my questions. Lazy bastard.
We have a name for that. We call it populism.
Yessir
Real truth is sought and found by those who have nothing to lose finding it, nor expect a price at the other end.
Lies are the walls built by those who have to pay up the price to the truthseekers when they eventually find it.
On Nostr I just spray and pray that a Relay will store my data and that other users will connect to one of the Relays that sotred my data. In Pubky my Keypair is a censorship resistant DNS record that tells users where I store my Data (PKDNS). This offers a guarantee that I have all of the data that a User published, that I get the newest published version (mutability is still a big pain point in Nostr as Relays don't always respect updates or might not pick up on them) and on top of this is much easier to scale to a much larger Userbase.
While both systems will to a certain degree rely on certain centralized data aggregators, on Nostr most Data will end on a handful of Relays. In Pubky you're likely going to see Indexers aggregate the Data from many Homeservers to build your Social Graph. Replacing an index that malbehaves is a matter of seconds. Replacing a few centralized Relays that host most of the data is much harder at scale.
Regarding pubky.app, which is basically the first pubky-core based social application, there are some cool features like tags available with many more on the Roadmap for this year.
