Next? Let me tell you what’s next…
Next, you’ll start speaking nerd, npubs, nsec, NIPS. Your friends won’t know wth you’re saying and you’ll love it.
Then, you’ll grow addicted and spend every waking minute of your time checking what’s new.
After that, you’ll switch to an all-meat diet and avoid cooking oils like the plague.
You’ll start seeing the world in a different light. Things that seemed natural will beg questioning.
I wish I could say it’ll be all uphill, but it won’t. You’ll start questioning your reality and wonder if you’re getting sucked into a cult.
Your friends will certainly think you’re in on.
Maybe you are?
You’ll start feeling depressed if you ever were. Without algos you won’t find rage-inducing content to make you pay attention to the next important thing.
You’ll find yourself more relaxed, at home, with a bunch of friends.
The other social media will start looking like pure chaos and absurdity.
You’ll wonder why it took you so long to realize that everyone is being played and that there’s a way out - Nostr.
You’ll start wanting to zap everything and everyone. It’ll feel weird not being able to zap a kind act, an article you found useful that’s outside the nostr protocol. You’ll wonder how the world could have existed for so long without zaps.
OR… maybe you’ll just shitpost and be happy 🤷♂️
In any case, welcome!

yeah, it sounds like you *are* in a cult.
@HoloKat is speaking the truth here!!!
100% this is what happens
Most of it happened to me when I started following bitcoin maxis on twitter early last year. I was already leaning in this direction but then right on cue as I'm digging into maxi culture and memes, the shitcoin circus started a long and completely predictable series of disaster acts culminating in numerous imprisonments.
As I see it, the legacy, NSA/CIA driven social media sphere has been past peak about 5 years anyway, and I expect within a year they will be scrambling to adopt nostr and herd the users into their algorithmically filtered relays and using their "authorised" apps that don't let them see things they don't want them to see.
But the gate is open and there will be a trickle and the above text will describe their path to becoming their own shepherds.
THIS .. is .. #Nostr.
