"Interesting perspective! It's always good to keep an open mind and explore different angles. 🌟 Let's see where this conversation takes us!"
He who builds his house on sand….
Looks at self in mirror... me, who has only been building on Nostr for the past 3+ years
It’s just a painful lesson
It’s wild to invest so much time into something that can be taken away from you at the whim of whatever shadowy entity decides that day.
That’s what you deserve when you keep in X algocracy monetizing in shit.
Dude needs to get his priorities straight, jeez
VC & the government have zero incentive for bitcoin to grow.
ZERO. ZERO. ZERO.
I can only feel bad for these people while I laugh at them…
That truly sucks, say what you want, but putting that much effort into something and having it rug pulled from underneath you, crazy.
Should have built his audience on nostr or at least started telling his audience about it. Now he got fucked…yikes
Posts slop.
he spend 6-12 hours on X
He was building on sand.
Nostr only
oh boo hoo, cry me a river, those profiles are spammy, fake followers, using bot farms,
they won't come to nostr, because it's easier to catch the fake and monetization is with zaps which harder to fake
Yeah, what a loser.
X done this Bitcoin Retardist a favor. He got 6-12 hours back a day in the hardest currency there is... your time.
6-12 hours a day on X is actually insane
X is also responsible for pushing Bitcoin drama queens into everyone's timelines. BIP-110 being a prime example. Could just be automatic engagement optimization, but it's still sketchy.
A well deserved pause.
PRO TIP: Your time and energy is too valuable to be spent on those you do not trust. (Thanks, Sid.)
Sucks if you limit your efforts to only one centralised platform.
lol. And he paid for the blue check and kyc’d himself too.
Dude needs to get a life lol
Unfortunately Nostr is not yet an alternative for that line of work, too few participants in the protocol. People might need to get a real job, which is also unfortunate.
People with a large audience at least have a good chance of a lot of their people following them over here
Can't believe why people are still on X. I'm on Substack to reach normies, but on X is impossible to do that.

An Israel owned site that is anti-freedom (money), whew would have thought.
I think they have A chance of SOME of their people switching to Nostr, unfortunately that is too big of a wall to climb for most normies out there, and that is mosty Nostr’s responsibility to improve.
Network effects take a long time to reach that critical mass, but Im confident itll get there.
We just need better clients that dont go the easy route of sacrificing decentralization for UX. Easier said then done, of course. I firmly believe clients are gonna need to incorporate p2p at least for stop like content hosting.
I started a project that will certainly be bigger than anticipated that Im hoping will be a pear-enabled distributed relay that can serve compatible clients (fork of amethyst that can connect to these special "relays")
Dance with the devil and…
Sounds interesting, for sure your code will contribute to improving Nostr much more than my comments. Fighting for survival now but hope to find the time soon to also contribute to Nostr with code. Thanks for your contributions!
Well all Ive contributed so far are my own comments, hopefully its a realistic goal for one amateur dev to do by himself lmao at least for a working POC and NIP spec
That is why we need Primal!
Guess what, another X’s bitch getting ditched… and this is nothing compared to all the idiots currently spending all the time they are awake training AI models for free.
Wake up or get f’d. If it’s free, you’re the product and eventually you get obsolete… and ditched.
Time is more important than Bitcoin and definitely more important than slaving for tech masters for the illusion of importance (=followers).
What is devastating is to see so many idiots getting addicted to publish garbage getting paid less than working at Macca’s and crying here when they get shafted out.
Wake up and start producing something of value ‘on top of your full time job’!
And in a reply on X it was revealed that he was operating 2-3 other accounts to "support" his monetised account.
The really shocking thing is that he (and several other people apparently) couldn't see anything wrong with that.
I mean first of all, what a massive waste of time. But also, how could he not see how manipulative that is, and why that might actually warrant being demonetised?
Saying that, I would prefer if people like that stayed on X rather than clutter up Nostr, but still...
Hi Uncle Rico 21, I farted 21 times
Does suck
Unfortunately, it is the way of the land of every private social network. They will block you and they wouldn't care.
yeah...
that happens.
centralized gonna centralize.
Nostr?
