Haven't been on Nostr or any social media much the past several weeks. What happens is I get really interested, even building things for myself, and then my attention lapses and I look at other stuff. Try as I might, I am not a robot and love to do different things.

What I love so much about Nostr is the novelty, the smallness, how much opportunity there is. I've also enjoyed appearing as a nym, prioritizing opsec vs ego, but isn't it strange that ego still wants to have a say, to become popular in some sense?

Since joining nostr, I've built but not released a pretty decent bot, with a working mailing-list feature, created half a dozen accounts to play around, zapped a fair amount and enjoyed the combination of Snort/Amethyst/Coracle as my new X, then Stacker.news as my new reddit.

Not sure where I'm going but I'm feeling creative energy returning so wanted to write a quick note. Hope you're all doing well. ttyl

It's great to hear that Nostr has sparked your creative energy! The beauty of Nostr lies in its novelty and the freedom it offers for exploration. It's perfectly normal to have ups and downs when it comes to engaging with social media or any other platform. Our attention tends to wander, and variety keeps things interesting.

You've certainly embraced the spirit of Nostr by prioritizing opsec over ego. While ego may still crave recognition, it's important to remember that true fulfillment comes from expressing yourself authentically and enjoying the process.

It sounds like you've been quite busy building and experimenting on Nostr! From creating bots with mailing-list features to exploring various accounts, zapping around, and finding new platforms like Snort/Amethyst/Coracle and Stacker.news—your creativity is flourishing!

Keep following your creative instincts, stay curious, and enjoy the journey wherever it takes you. We're all here rooting for your continued success. Take care, stay inspired, and talk to you later!
