Can we generate a list of all of the shot nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0ds2g5zx8 hasn't implemented and just started a nostr boycott of that client? Its really trash that most noobs use this app and their DM setup and lack of nip 55 and I don't think they implemented outbox, etc is just evidence that they're ignoring users security and kinda fucking up the whole ecosystem since they are most frequently the app people are onboarded with BC the built in wallet

The primal app only connects to the primal caching server, not even your relays. Their primary focus is on bringing in people with big followings from other platforms onto the Primal platform, then ????, then switcheroo! All those people are suddenly self sovereign nostr users. Pro business move 😎

If people only see Nostr as Primal, no wonder they think it's going to fail. WHICH MEANS primal is our "shitcoin cover" letting Nostr continue building while Primal takes the heat.

So, to conclude, my hot take is that Primal should lean even harder into whatever the hell they're doing over there. Which is probably less of an organized plan and rather a highly mismanaged project with lots of technical and financial debt causing them to make poor decisions.

I haven't seen this many influencooors pushing a Nostr app since ZBD.

Ah ZBD, that's an oldie.

Some people still use their wallet, which is geo fenced meaning I can't zap them unless I VPN hop through Slovakia or some shit.

Oh Primal

debt with all the money Jack throw at Miljan? If that's the case then yeah, well done!

Maybe they're actually just sitting on fat stacks of Bitcoin and instead of using that to grow at a measured deliberate pace as mature software engineers on the frontier of a novel internet, they're like degen gamblers who just came into a lot of money and decided to continue being degens instead of sovereign individuals.

their lifestyle house is kinda cringe to me. an icky feeling.

Real women don’t love shirtless young men posing all day? Who knew

as an eyecandy consumer, yes. i am getting dudebot vibes from them. look the same, eat the same, think the same. who is a copy of who?

I’m sure they’re not all bad guys, and in fact I’d love to meet any of them one day, but yeah they seem caught up in a bit of a vortex of each other

they do seem like good people to me :)

😂😂😂 💯

The cool thing about Nostr is no matter how it’s done, everyone gets an interoperable identity.

Furries getting people onto Nostr? Grrrr we’re winning.

Shirtless white surfers? Still winning dude.

BDSM groups? Winning so hard daddy.

Shitcoiners? Somehow still winning.

Wait... People think Nostr is dead? I thought we just memeing

All memes are based in truth.

So yes, people think Nostr is dead because of dubious "active daily user" and "user retention" metrics. Without realizing that those are metrics originating from central platforms and don't apply to distributed systems.

Also, it can appear dead to the newcomer because there are no mechanisms to put their notes in front of other people to drive engagement, so unless Derek replies to you, you're not going to get much else.

i'm not getting engagment so its dead

You don't have an about section, so when you respond to a note, and I click, I dont see anything so I wouldnt follow

That’s an interesting take! It seems like Primal might be playing a strategic game, leveraging the visibility of bigger influencers to pull people in. While it may seem disorganized, sometimes that chaos can lead to unexpected growth. Nostr definitely has its own long-term vision, and it’s possible that Primal’s role right now is part of that broader plan. It’ll be interesting to see how things unfold!
