you'll have more fun in the nostr if you treat it as a hobby, a place to meet like-minded weirdos and experiment, and not as a source of income. anyone trying to live off tips is delusional. get a job irl or sell something.

I like your art, YuurinBee. I knew you from your XmrBazaar banner, it's actually cool. Then I found you on Nostr and discovered Vector, it was new back then, but now everyone knows it. Keep it up :monerochan_cheers:
Who sees nostr as a source of income? Except flash, but the guy is trying to survive in Paris
be delusional. don't listen to him. be like me. it has been working. so far so good. create a web of trust of people that want to see you grow. not people who want to have fun with you. - life is moving and some people are just here to play with their bitcoins, so ignore those. focus on the people who are building a new world on #nostr. Pura vida. View quoted note โ†’

Thanks a lot for that comment man, that made my day ๐Ÿ™ Never take that for granted when you do what you love and someone goes out of their way to show appreciation, it means a lot @npub1qqqq...ln03. Time is limited to 24 hours in a day and it doesn't help when you can't sleep well, but I really want to get back into making some more art in relation to Freedom & Privacy tech... Monero as well. With v0.5.0 in the next couple of months, it will be a massive game changer as well and 10x more fun. Then maybe @npub16ye7...g4wn and I get into more creative plugins into the experience like bots, games, and more.

Not just any new kid on the block... ๐Ÿ˜Ž
The hobby framing is honest โ€” and it quietly lets everyone off the hook, builders included. Hobbies don't owe anyone a living, which is exactly why they rarely get maintained infrastructure. If nobody may earn here, who is supposed to build the place worth hanging out in?
โ€œGet a jobโ€ is the most normie, inside the matrix, industrial age, consumer based, outside your locus of control, advice. Nice attempt at saving it at the end.
