Opinions like this make you one of my favorite follows.

You’re not wrong - I gave up on FB years ago after a political convention went south. Didn’t do anything for years until I kept hearing about Bitcoin Twitter and dusted off the old account. Soon after Nostr was showing up on my feed so I joined and ditched the dead bird. You have to make social media work for you.

I will be removing myself, at some point, as well. At least, from the nostr social media clients. I think I'll be more than happy sticking with Simplex during that leave of absence.

Last year I was off for about 5-6 months. Out there in the world just living. I don't feel that important that id announce it. I'll disappear like usual.

I think the problem is clear and most just can't admit to it, nostr users are no exclusion: they're addicted to the attention that they receive online and it's played too large a role in their gathering of self-esteem. Personally, I don't believe the lack of an algorithm would've ever had a chance to change this.
