Reading through the replies to this and it's interesting how the idea of "you get out what you put in with #nostr " has evoked such strong criticism from several people, who essentially seem to think I'm telling everyone to spend all day every day actively posting and engaging on nostr. I encourage them to read it again.

This is more about managing personal expectations. Nostr is a much more "human" network than other social networks, and in real world relationships you absolutely do get out what you put in. No one spends all day every day doing anything or being anywhere. But where you spend your time, and what you spend it doing, absolutely has an effect on what quality of experience you have with those parts of your life. #Nostr is no different.

The replies prove you've put enough work into nostr that plebs are willing to engage with you 👉🤙

I agree with this. Relationships are like tamagotchis. If you don't feed them, it's obvious they will die

Love the analogy 😁 In some cases too they'll just become secondary, or less important parts of your life, and probably less rewarding than those that are more important. We prioritize our time whether intentionally or not, and life rewards us for our decisions, whether positively or negatively.

To be fair though, your meme literally says as one of the items "spends most of their time off Nostr" so...

Can you not fucking read? Yes, if you spend most of your time off Nostr then you should not expect to have a quality experience. Just like if you spend most of your time away from your family you should not expect to have a good relationship with your family. Just like if you spend most of your time not practicing something, you should not expect to be good at doing that thing. What you put in you will get out.

Well that seems like an unreasonably harsh reply. I think we just have different ideas about what "most of your time" means. My guess is you're not meaning >12h/day which is what it literally would mean.
