Could be an opportunity for nostr to help make social media less shitty. 1/3 of US gets their news from Facebook. 13% from Twitter. That’s a lot of people constantly bombarded with negative media. Endless scrolling TikTok’s and instagrams, seeing everyone’s life highlights can make anyone feel less happy. Combine with all of the factors that stem from broken money, it’s a recipe for disaster.

You’re both right. There shouldn’t be disagreement here! To @HoloKat point social media is one avenue to tackle, as the problem needs to be broken down and met where people are. People are on social media. Builders on Nostr have an opportunity here. There are other ways to help and people who are or can be of service there should have at it. Just my 2 sats.
