His reaction to the global feed, if you’re new here, is very understandable. There is some heinous stuff out there.

If someone is showing up to nostr this early, that’s a huge start. “The first step is realizing there’s a problem” and all that.

Nostr is in a stage, in my opinion, where nurturing new users and helping people get accustomed to a new way of engaging is crucial to growing this network.
