Replying to Avatar mike

I’ve just had an interesting conversation with nostr:npub14yf4yasnqgpkzjrzhysshglf82e8nkp8r9sn5hzqu4n244k3avtshhwpyu saying everybody is welcome on #nostr and we don’t treat influencers or celebrities any different.

But a question.

Is everybody welcome here?

It is an open protocol, so everybody is free to engage, but do we want to replicate the toxicity of X or the vacuousness of Instagram?

Is this is different place not intended for everybody or is a new self sovereign content protocol that is intended for all?

Opinions please….

To be honest, I don’t think I personally want “everyone” on here 🫣 I left social media for other reasons, but when I was on all others I hated the BS ads for a “healthy” protein bar and I hated not understanding if this hair product really worked or if this is a paid add that gave her a script to say it really does x, y, and z for your hair. I really ended up never trusting the paid ads 🤷‍♀️

But, I think the zaps here on nostr will help us naturally #OrangePill the masses and that I do want. 🙏

Maybe when the #IGnostr is built out with zaps, others can go there or wherever they want. But for now, I’m bringing my friends here to help me orange pill them even more. It’s just that I’m a girl, so I mostly have girlfriends 👯‍♀️ to bring. I know we are not as advanced as you guys, but we want to be a part of this future. I am the “tech” one in our group so they trust me with phone security, bitcoin, wallets (hot and cold), apps whatever, so while at lunch or out for tea we usually talk “tech” and what’s new. I bring up nostr and those that show interest or bring them here.

I’ve never been a fan of the pronoun debate, but when you say something like “we are not as advanced as you guys” I do understand the argument and advocate its limited adoption.

Just as your influencer friend has no special privileges, so you are no less “advanced” as us “guys”.

We are all beginners, we are all learning, we are all equal.
