I have a lot of people that follow me. I have plenty of pain points, just like you do. Nostr has issues for everyone. What do you think I am not understanding or missing? I
Large accounts ask stupid questions, sometimes. They have no clue how Nostr works for the other 99%.
Discussion
You're one of the only ones who has a clue. 😂
it's also interesting that it prompted a response
I strive to be a voice for the plebs that cannot be heard and try to make them heard 🫂
i am here to make people see into the darkness and realise the light that they didn't see
so i also respond for similar but different reasons
i'm not a big account, i actively offend my followers because i don't care about their fawning i'm here for the advancement of collective understanding
The new thing is asking why it matters how many followers you have.
It's like...
Go to the trendlists.
Go to the wikis.
Go to the git clients.
Go to the article readers.
Go to the search fields.
Go to...
Whose stuff do you see, everywhere?
You see my stuff, right?
Why do you think you see it?
Thank you for playing.
the new thing is being provocative
turns out that saying no and disagreeing is the new agreeing and saying yes
I support the new thing.
tension = retention... and the algo gets the bad rep, right?
idk but it's a new kind of warfare
Anything novel is provocative and upsetting to someone (usually most people, as humans eschew change).
Sometimes I formulate things mildly, sometimes I agitate, but it makes no tangible difference. People who are ready for a message accept it regardless off the tone, and people who aren't, don't.
Yes, I've been consciously testing that. 😂
Thank you 🫂😂 I try to make it my mission to understand all of the pain points that people have so that we can improve and grow Nostr.
But generally
1) Why npubs boost their own notes, including replies.
2) Why npubs care about follower count.
3) The importance of seemingly pointless rituals, like GM notes or hellthreads.
4) How trendlists work.
5) Dealing with harrassment.
6) Trying to start off a new npub, when you don't know anyone here and have a WoT score of 0.
7) How quickly new npubs become discouraged by negative feedback.
8) The importance of relay management.
Fire list. I'll start adding these to my how do Nostr notes.
GN! PV! 🤙
nostr:npub1cgcwm56v5hyrrzl5ty4vq4kdud63n5u4czgycdl2r3jshzk55ufqe52ndy things to consider idk if they are entirely applicable to what you are working on tho 💜
Not really... I'm just making a guide on how to use amethyst. If it's not a total flop, maybe I'll try some other guides too but that is yet to be seen
Make sure you put it in the wiki!
What’s point 7 about?
How some bigger, older npubs attack newer, smaller npubs, and sic their cronies on them.
Damn, I need to pay more attention, I have no idea this is a thing
OMG, really??? I was not aware
