X, can you send ZAPs? Then I’d rather be here—the real, the one and only, the modern NOSTR!! 🤝🤙 Pure life, ODELL! 🤙
I tried, but once you get used to free speech and not malicious algorithms I couldn't continue
I gave this a heart so I can feel like I’m Xing again. it feels kind of stupid

When you're not a known name NOSTR is like yelling down an empty hallway.. unfortunately. Deleted Twitter years ago.. Hopefully this protocol gains traction..

Yeah it won’t change for a while. People who were here early rarely follow newcomers. Not out of disregard, just easy to forget.
I don’t know what you’re talking about. I can hear you loud and clear. You are not alone here, this hall is filled with friends! 🫂
FOLLOW AND REPLY It’s important to reply your dank shit to mid-level accounts instead of posting solo or replying to Odell/Lyn/Jack until you build a better Web of Trust V4V

Thanks to njump, everything I post directly onto Nostr also goes to X.

If no one is in your hallway, you can always go yell in someone else’s hallway.
I made a similar post, got some follows and some advice, sent some zaps and immediately community engagement was up and better. Part of being early adopters of new things is watching them grow and going through growing pains with the community and tech!

The Noster platform is highly centralized and dangerous to Bitcoin adoption.

I'm picking up what you're putting down. I'm finding the same to be true.👍

I felt the same way and still do in a way, but it made me ask myself, what is it that I’m really after? What is that “lack” that I’m feeling? Engagement? Attention? Affirmation? And if it was those things, I’m surely better off finding them elsewhere, in real life. Then I was kind of embarrassed for feeling that lack.
Is being a known name good? I'd rather be an anon pepe in clown world.

I wouldn't be surprised if the hack targeting Bitcoiners and Nostr supporters on X was a staged effort to suppress influential voices on the platform.

Nostr, like all things healthy, rewards hard work. And, when you do the work, with consistency over time and achieve your goals, it feels good and is lasting. It fills the soul, and you actually need less over time to satisfy your needs. Good luck.

100% man, it's the main reason why I haven't spent basically any time here over the last year. Got no one to say things to here, so I don't bother saying them 🤷‍♂️

that and I can't figure out how to set up lightning, etc. no good guides, no one talking about how to best utilise this tool.

Hello from the other end of the hallway 👋
if ur looking for “friends” on social media, then fiat friends is all u will find. #nostr is a great tool for communication, totally has a function, but even it cannot replace real social connection and human relationships

I mean, almost literally here, right? If you have no followers and create a new note, does anyone see it? But, this isn't all that much different than X, really. I've been active there since like 2011, and only recently have my 'solo' posts been noticed much if at all. I spent years responding in conversations of people who are seen, and thus I was seen, and slowly picked up followers. I suspect it is similar here.

If I understand the current state of X, based on what my friend who is a screenplay and novel writer and uses it for professional purposes (to get reach and be seen interacting with "the right people", as he admits), over there you get *actively* hidden unless you are a paid account AND have already a bunch of the "right" followers. So factually speaking, Nostr is better for small individual accounts.

Yeah, I think so. I don't know the true paid/unpaid impact, but that seems to be the thinking. I'm a paid account over there... and not just to rank better, but I'm truly grateful for what Elon did (no matter his true motives). It was world-changing, so unless it gets really ruined someday, I'm a supporter. So, not trying to be down on X at all! But, I also see the value in Nostr being successful, so really excited in what is going on here. I'm an old-school blogger, hugely into podcasting, etc. We have to move the world back towards our own sites, feeds, etc. and not a few platforms (no matter how good/useful they've been in some ways).

We all hope that! primal is the best to use it on. They should improve all apps and make it a bit easier to create a profile. Most people are turned away when they are selling them nodes and shit. Alby for example. Go nostr! Adopt it! #nostr #adoption

Never used X. Went to sign up once and there was an error. Took that as a sign
