Nostr Web Client

I really don't get the people that complain that they don't get followers on Nostr because there is no algorithm.

I never got any followers in any of these platforms with algorithms (even though I used them actively for years), except when by some unexplicable hit of luck some people started using @lntxbot on Telegram and by word-of-mouth it got to Alex Bosworth and he mentioned it on tweet and then my follower count slowly grew from 50 to like 5000 over a 3-year period.

Is there a magic trick that allows you to go from 0 to 100000 by gaming the algorithm these days and then scam your followers a high-ticket course about how to get followers and become a millionaire? Or what are these people talking about? Why do they even want followers in the first place?

Produce consistent high-quality content and the followers will eventually show up.

Low-Time Preference people will understand this. You deserve the followers you get. Both in number and quality.

I don't think this is true at all. Not even close. Look at how many outright evil people with millions of followers exist in these platforms.

They can be evil, but they have right content for their audience…

I have some faith that long-term it will be different with Nostr.

There will still be darkness, but the light can shine through here.

And many wont be able to ignore that light.

I've been working on nostr:nprofile1qqsvh2svs20dxgkp25wtvcvmfsytngn2e9llkn54jgz7a3uwaycny3gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxthwden5te0dehhxarj9e4h2mn8ve6j6eewwf5hqtcpr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucn0denkymmwvuhxxmmd9uua69zy for over a year now. The follower count is low, but steadily growing. I have faith in the process here.
