Ok, it just doesn't feel like it'll be worth all the effort.
I feel like I'm following everyone I know. I don't like following random accounts because they're more likely to generate noise than be useful.
But maybe that's the trick? Maybe on Nostr you have to follow people to see whether they'll be worth following?

Maybe itβs starting to click for you now.
Yep, and look out for good content boosted by someone you follow, then follow the op.
That's the only way to get a diverse feed, since there is no algo tailored to keeping your eyeballs engaged so you see injected adverts.
It all depends on what youβre looking for? Engagement? Come to cornychat.com around 4pm EST
Honestly I prefer some kind of algorithm to do most of the work. And I pay for Twitter so I don't have to see ads.
I'd do the same on here if some client implemented it. Nostr clients could curate their users' feeds and charge for the service. The advantage of course is that the algorithm would be open and user-configurable. I think that'd be a huge value add.
yes. if you want your timeline to show anything fun you need to follow about 900 more people.. find em in global, find em with DVM feeds, find em in conversations etc. you can always unfollow but your feed will not grow itself..
No, I never just follow accounts blindly. This is what many recommend but I actually recommend against it.
I always read every note and reply theyβve made for the past 1-2 weeks before following. If I like them enough, only then do I follow. Your criteria are up to you, but thatβs what I do.
