Nostr Web Client

So far the it has been trending the opposite way. Twitter and Threads are growing, adding more users every day than the entire user base of nostr

f*N grows faster when N is very large. The base of #nostr is small compared to twitter and threads; but the f for #nostr has been very high. Irrespective of that, however, is that the motivation for using #Nostr is different. For those of us who want control over our words, and our ideas, using #Nostr for that purpose is important.

It may be that the "popular" networks _always_ have more users than #Nostr. That's OK with me. I don't use #Nostr for reach. I use #Nostr to communicate without the impediment of censorious overlords who think they are smart.

I really do care about reach. It’s the only reason I use social networks, to reach people from outside of my network.

When I communicate with people within my network, I prefer encrypted messaging apps.

That said, I’ve always been an Uncle Bob fan and really happy that I was able to reach you here, so maybe nostr is useful to me for reach after all! 🧡
