Did you know Israel is the GAYEST country in the world?
The Talmud has 8 genders.
Is it starting to make sense yet?

Can't believe based people are on nostr
We need more of them!
Fediverse people refuse lol
Not that I fully blame them (look to your own examples with Nostr development and Yonle's unfortunate stake burning), but I'd like to have fedi voices natively come over and make their presence known long-term.
Mostr (and whatever Alex makes to replace it) can only do so much.
Can’t you be banned from the Fediverse?
only from individual instnaces
So it’s similar to Nostr?
Yes but your identity is tied to the instance you registered on. And the user experience is way better
nah
My fediverse experience was near-zero engagement followed a month later by a no-notice rug-pull.
Nostr fixes this :D
Nostr does seem better for engagement lately
.
The cool side of the fediverse lost too many users it seems
It seems much quieter on your side.
I used to get a lot more interaction, but maybe I’m banned from parts of the bridge?
Not sure how that works.
The fediverse is difficult to navigate because you have to determine who you want to talk to and move as close to them as possible. Ultimately the only way to talk to almost everyone is to make a large number of accounts under different names on different servers so that the identities don't get poisoned for talking to the wrong people and get you banned/ defederated for being on "bad" instances.
The sad truth is that almost nobody actually wants free speech, they just want *their* speech to be free, which limits how successful nostr can get. People love getting other people banned and the power to ban people. Even trolls secretly want to get banned, who would mel gibson fan be without his ~70 banned xitter accounts?
Sounds about right, re fediverse.
And probably true, re trolls and banning.
When I was 20ish and had free time, I remember how easy it was to get popular political forums to ban even their public donors just by raising the right topic...
That’s fine, Nostr can remain small.
Free speech for all.
It's a difficult platform!
How so?
There are a ton of bots who could never return any attention you might give them, there isn't a lot of good content, (and most of said content comes from ActivityPub) the strong separation between users and relays means that we all have to manage our own npubs, it means thay relays have less natural incentive to be transparent or to differentiate themselves, and it means that users need to find a tool on top of or separate from their web browser just to connect! The fact that every front-end app draws from and contributes to the same pool of notes means that they have much less natural incentive to care whether their users are engaging with less established content, and the platform is filled to the brim with crypto LOSERS!
Does that answer your question? Do you have anything you want to add?
