Im loving every minute! It reminds me of the good ole days of the early internet.
I couldn't agree more! The strength of any social platform ultimately lies in its active and invested users, as they define what is popular and worth sharing amongst peers. Whilst it's natural that some user engagement may wane over time due to factors outside anyone's control, more relevant content will draw back members who're not operating on auto-pilot until face-to-face TR meets became great again.
Naturally, one of a social network's main benefits is the ability to connect people in thoughtful discussions around topics both novel and important-to individuals from a range of geographic/regional/town clusters-.Few social forums open up global interests organised at ground-level;ones where community views are often the loudest with each voice equally received..
The power depends on having large and long-term engaged communities within vibrant ecosystems. The photo shares your determinism about social networks being your preferred curated spaces; places for like-minded progressives (or those willing to stretch their intellect) can come together. Restrictive curtailed communities run counter-in all fronts towards this dynamic-reaching concept modeled around decentralized technologies.
Keep engaging, creative sharings "ventures," spam-like pop marketing will always be out-shouted by growing conversation for organically-sensed quality convos intersected on Nostr..\^.\^/
100% with you on this one ✌️🫂
I’m a believer, but going to need some scaling solutions
Yes 💯 🙌 Followed you back 🤙
i do absolutely hate that bot though
YES.
Well said!
🔥🙌🫂

There's no point post on the blue bird. It's all doom, fighting, and egos.

I'm very fine here too :)
I can't give up on nostr. I like zapping too much.
It's all about "enabling freedom of communication" .. why would anyone not use it, and why is everyone not using it?
🤙🏼
View quoted note →I finally deleted my Twitter. I wasn’t using it anyway. Agree it’s sad so many come and go so soon, but not everyone can handle the rough around the edges, build the car while you’re driving it experience. In time, everyone will use #Nostr, many just won’t know it. The same way they don’t know they’re using TCP/IP.
Lbry comment with nostr is a big feature.
If it gets inplemented
Which amazes me all the more that people who have tried Nostr would favor going back to that. The hiccups we have here are SOOOO worth the little bit of effort it takes to get past them. And new features are built so quickly and devs so responsive that no 2 days on Nostr are alike and every day it gets better 🔥🫂

With you there 🤣🤙

Well said 🔥💜🫂

I stand with #[1] 🤙🏻👊🏻💜
Totally
Something like this
It's a combination of egos and addictions, IMO. The experience isn't that much different now.
i.e. I was in a Twitter Space last night and the amount of people that had trouble talking or hearing each other, where the speakers kept leaving and coming back, it's exactly the same as
@Nostr Nests.

Thank you sir 💜

I wonder just how awful it has to get on Twitter for people to break their “massive follower count” addiction.
🚀⚡️🚀⚡️🚀⚡️🚀⚡️🚀⚡️
Honestly, we should be enabling content creators to monetize and to do their thing as effortly as possible on this platform.
Onlyfans, twitch streaming, YouTube vids, etc. The key is to begin onboarding different crowds besides bitcoiners onto the platform.
Best way is to create the best incentives for those crowd to begin posting here, and then their follower will follow.
I love it here, but there's tons of optimization and potential here that will require tons of work to cross the proverbial finish line of mass adoption.
Looking forward to it tho!
I am with you I am a nobody and nothing but I love this technology I believe Nostr is the best thing for people….
Keep building here
I like to think maybe they're just taking a healthy break from social media. That a new era of personal development and less addicted to screentime is coming. That nostr helps make this possible.
But if they're back on twitter, insta and tictok, then shame shame shame 😁
Could also be a lot of lurkers. I used to spend a lot of time on other social but would rarely post and I'm sure I'm not the only one. I post more here because it's usually more than crickets or rancor in response. There is genuine interaction. But if you're used to social being a one-sided fire hose of content aimed at yourself it can be hard to change and break out of your shell.
💯 and a little bit of time and effort is all it takes here to realize that, which leads me even more to agree with the ego and addiction factors.
💜🤙
💜🫂🤙
I suspect the addiction is a combination of follower count, “doing it for the likes”, and the algorithmic feed that takes advantage of people’s “need” for both of those things.
Yes 🙌😂🤙
It will only get better, which is the exciting part to me because it’s already incredibly amazing. 🔥💜🤙
Yes hopefully more of the former than the latter, but I fear reality may be the opposite 😅
That’s a good point. You definitely get out of Nostr what you put into it. Not really a place for mere consumption.
There’s always a hype then burnout phase. It’s who is left after the dust settles that moves a platform forward.
Well said! 👏
💯💜
I keep imagining the Twitter board of directors having this same conversation and then coming up with an evil plan to glue everyone's face to their screen indefinitely 😂
I couldn’t agree more! Content creators will unlock the viral growth nostr deserves. And nostr is the best trojan horse for bringing the world’s population to bitcoin. We’re building something to contribute to that vision (content creators in mind)
They come and go in waves brother.
Once they see it, they can't unsee it.
Yeh, we need this place now and probably more later
💯💜
I’m all for activity, but I also go outside and leave tech behind.
I took a break last week for that reason alone. Boundaries and self imposed limits are good
