NOSTR NATURALLY DETERS LOW INTEGRITY PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY RELY ON THE ABILITY TO BLOCK CRITICS, RESTRICT REPLIES, AND DELETE POSTS.
Discussion
But they still have Grandfather Mute.
YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOUR PAST SHIT ON #NOSTR..
nostr is good because you can choose your client and clients have a wide variety of philosophies
it will never change from this, because a client can run on your pc
are you saying you have more capabilities with different clients and when run on PC?
yes, mobile apps are not as good
hmmm, ok. I do see there's definitely differences in functionality. But I could not make a post with two different browsers. The "post" button doesn't work.
if post button is not enabled you haven't logged in with an nsec
hmmm, nope I should be logged in. I see my profile pic and attempting to post as my profile. but I will double check. someone suggested I use chrome which I uninstalled some time ago. really don't like that browser.
it shows your profile if you log in with the npub also, but you can't post
oh, also, don't use chrome, use brave if you are going with the chrome-based type
i find firefox to be very annoying in many ways, the most irritating one is its DRM nag when you disable the widevine DRM and then someone posts like, spotify on nostr and it pops up and chews a whole line of the top of the window nagging you to enable this piratical DRM shit (because it takes over control of part of your computer) the main problem was it wasn't letting me screenshot my browser!
also, part of the problem is that desktop apps have bigger screens so they can show more information
condensing the information down is not easy to get right
it's one of the most infuriating things about the Apple mindset that they can simplify everything and not lose utility
gotya... hmmm, interesting... I am no dev but that makes sense.
Exactly ...haven't seen many shitcoiners so far!
Ehh tbf that could still happen at the client level
YES
Agreed, but we still need to improve user friendliness, adoption is at stand-still:

adoption is not about clients at this stage. That idea is a myth.
Finding people when starting is too hard imo. Adding relays is confusing too
Ive been using “the alternative” for over a decade. migration is rarely about the client. almost always about either a reactionary event, or viral novelty. nostr now enters the post honeymoon period. the long dark night of the soul.
now we find out who is here for shallow reasons and who isnt.
IT IS STILL VERY EARLY. THAT SAID THERE ARE MORE RESPONSES TO THE POST YOU RESPONDED TO THAN MOST TWEETS.
It's similar to Bitcoin. It just works, fixes problems itself.
Blocking because you don't admit that you're wrong is from lazy people
You exactly describe Elon.
Many people enjoy feeding off of hate and negative energy.. we have almost none of that here.
People want public servants to take responsibility for their errors but they themselves can't own the stupid shit they say online
U won't disguise your reputation around here, let them know
And if people still want that experience that they normally get from centralized social media, they could just connect to only the Nostr relays that support that functionality.
People with low integrity, people with low self confidence, people with herd mentality.
AND THEY'RE LAZY. POW IS A GREAT SOCIAL LAYER FILTERING MECHANISM. WE SHOULD CONTEMPLATE HOW EASY WE REALLY WANT NOSTR TO GET.
Nostr is a pseudo Proof-of-Work protocol and turns many people off.
💯🎯🙌🫡
There are a lot of #Bitcoin ers like that on twitter rightnow, I don't understand why they do that but they do it.
I'm starting to notice this.
THEIR POWER THIRST BLINDS THEM, UNABLE TO SEE THE BIG PICTURE, PROBABLY HATE ALL CAPS TOO!
Your post is causing quite a stir.

Nostr will do to communication what bitcoin will do to finance.
Nah is the same here in nostr the difference always gonna be algos 🤣
Even worse, they rely on someone else's to do block critocs, restrict replies, and delete posts.
Tour drunk post's will be forever 😅
I would not necessarily agree with that statement.
Personally, I would LOVE the ability to BLOCK people and would definitely fking BLOCK the Shallow Attention Whore RUDE Bitch responsible for my getting attacked for hours months ago.
Bitch and those who attacked me will NEVER EVER have anything to do with me again in the future nor be invited to any soirees or events!
Nostr is NOT intuitive and difficult for the average person to figure it out to use, esp if not a Coder or a 💻 Geek.
So it’s NOT accessible for a main stream audience and that’s why it’s a better group of people who use it now.
Main stream audience = ALWAYS ⬆️⬆️⬆️ of low integrity and jerks.
And can only thrive on high reactions.
I was listening to a series of videos about some beef in the german youtube space and the amount of problems they have because of the platforms in use alone was actually insane. xD
After thinking about this for a long while, not really.
The only reason nostr doesn’t have (many) “low integrity” people is because there aren’t many people on it at all.
I’ll bet all the sats in my wallet that if nostr had as large of an active userbase as Tw*tter/X, it would look something like Tw*tter.
Pretending that technological implementations would magically turn dickheads into better human beings is wishful thinking. The SJW keyboard warriors are still going to SJW. The incels, neo-nazis, and white supremacists are still going to be pieces of shit, regardless of whether or not they can block people or delete posts.
The fundamental reason some people behave the way they do on social media is because it’s an anonymous medium of interaction. There’s no face-to-face aspect of socializing, thereby dehumanizing the person on the other end to a degree. No “features” are going to fix that.
pee pee poo poo
Aaand this is why all the good ones are here... 🙌
Outstanding post.
Another thing I like about Nostr is that it's also easy to spot shallow social climbers on here. Nostr doesn't fix this, but it's easy to spot, and it's rather rampant
