I think I've figured out what makes nostr so special

Not because it's censorship resistant

Not because you can send value across the globe without ID or permission

Not because of who's here

It's because of who's not here

No crazy aunts

No crazy ex girlfriends

No old teachers

No cousins

No nosy neighbours

Maybe we should just enjoy it while it lasts

Do you think the type that got nostr up and going will move on to something new and more niche by the time nostr goes mainstream and the masses arrive? Or will more exclusive sub communities crop up within nostr?

it's already happening with pubky

Will check that out, thanks

much of what you hear about pubky on nostr is part of a misinformation campaign to smear the project, without even a clear motivation behind it. it's not like anyone is holding bags of nostr coins.

It also doesn't have all the drama negativity loving people who hang out on X.

I am definitely a crazy aunt

Great suggestion. I love it here.

Oof, should I uninvite my aunt and cousin? ๐Ÿ˜†

Good point

Who gives a shit ... If they come so be it nothing we can control.. but doesn't mean they will be welcomed. The Heard will thin itself out trust me .

I think NOSTR will just branch out. People like their own feedback loop and the universe will balance itself

Exactly....

Crazy aunts top of the list? Man.

Agreed!

Well said . nostr is like a resource rich oasis in the middle of the digital desert that is social media .

Itโ€˜s the people. Smartest retarded plebs with big balls humble enough ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ—ฝ๐Ÿ’œ

Maybe Iโ€™m your noisy neighbor ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

You should try Keet.io decentralized, unstoppable, peer to peer. Even more exclusive.

Self selection

I am definitely someone's crazy ex-girlfriend ๐Ÿ˜‚

and you can hide as a nym if they come here

...?

We all started fresh new here like a new life. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡นโค๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น
