I think that’s completely missing the point. What you’re saying is similar to when ppl say bitcoin has no use case and it’s “just a narrative”. There are all sorts of problems w traditional social media that nostr is solving. It’s open source, it’s decentralized, bitcoin is integrated (zaps are a total game changer), it’s censorship resistant, no mind controlling algorithms, no ads…. New shit is being built on it every day. I find it very exciting.

If you’re going to make that analogy, then compare it to 2012 Bitcoin. Bitcoin’s use case and success has been proven out over the years, nostr’s has not. I agree it’s exciting and cool tech, but it’s not “resistance communication” until people successfully use it as such. It’s not really much right now… especially without people using it.

I agree w that. The critical mass is not here yet. Like any network, Nostr needs more users to rly be useful. 2012 Bitcoin is a good analogy. The tech is promising but We’re early. Only way to grow it is to use it. Hence why I’m here.

Pleasure to be here with you 🤝

It’s definitely more pleasant right now to interact with other people here compared to traditional social media, no doubt
