Smaller user group here.. if you want more engagement, give more engagement first. Think less in “followers” and more in “friendships”.

If you’re frustrated with virality and visibility on #nostr maybe you’re just used to serving algos, not people

Engagement is for algo bros. Scream into the void who cares if someone hears you. Manifest reality not engagement.
Somos una hermosa comunidad así , prefiero que no lleguen scammers ni tampoco shitcoiners

I #find #following #hashtags helps find #people to #engage with and I use hashtags so they can find me.
Lots of accounts who complain about engagement (not necessarily the quoted one) have it the other way around. It’s like they’re screaming into the void, waiting for a nonexistent algo to pick up their notes and bring them to us

I feel like i find the most interesting discussions (basically anything that isn't about bitcoin fixing something) when i use that rule.
I posted a bit and lurked for 3-4 months before I finally just started commenting on people's notes, then people started talking back and forth and I realized that was where nostr shines. Real people (for the most part) just looking to discuss random things. I always try to tell the newbies to engage, engage, engage. image

Am trying to put my lipstick on before heading off to work. I’m giggling too much 😂
The vast majority of social media are algo bots, sales pitches and a waste of time......its no surprise people are using it less. here on Nostr at least we can have silly conversations and make friends
I’m around, I saw your comment I know you’re working hard I hope you know the comment wasn’t directed at you but rather the wider bitcoin development community being represented by loud voices. Its unfortunate loud obnoxious voices dominate the conversation and represent hard working devs like you so poorly.

No bots engagement farming here. Gotta be authentic and gotta give a little to get a little.
