I'm back on nostr.

X and others have become increasingly _lewd_. I'm not sure if this the tendency of all social media platforms over time, as they become infiltrated by influencers and publishers who game the system by creating attention-grabbing content which tends to be negative.

I thought the other day about #ThreadsApp, and how "no one is using it". But what if the people using it _don't want everyone to use it_? What if they want meaningful interactions and authentic content? These go away when the algorithm promotes only the hot stuff, and when posters start aiming for popularity instead of meaning.

Why post to be popular? I want to read posts that inspire meaning and thought.

Or maybe I am just getting old.
