Nostr has oddly freed me from the constant pressure of social media. I no longer worry about algorithms punishing me for not posting regularly. On Nostr, quality and effort are genuinely appreciated, and value flows regardless of how often I post. It's liberating to focus on real life, knowing my work will still be valued when I share them. Plus I now have the time and space to experiment with new tools and learn new topics! 🧑‍🏫

Every single incentive works better here. That's all it comes down to.

So true. Nostr lets us reclaim our creativity by offering an alternative to centralized social media, where we waste our creative energy feeding the algos.
It’s such a cool shift in incentive isn’t it! A whole new economy opening up in front of us Look forward to seeing what you’ve been working on, & what comes out of the experience

The fact that we can't get shadow banned here is liberating. I strongly assume that I have been shadow banned on Twitter ever since the pandemic (didn't gain a single follower in four years, the same ten people interacting with my posts but no one else)... Once you know that something like that can happen to you, and you have no way of seeing when it is happening, the entire user experience is forever spoilt, since you will constantly ask yourself if you might be shadow banned once again.

Yes! This is my second day in Nostr only and I feel lighter, less stressed and more appreciated and appreciative!
Ohh I feel the same relief and I just found out about all this. I can’t imagine how I’ll feel in a month!!
Honestly just sticking to the follows only feed and skipping any algo is so liberating
