If I understand the current state of X, based on what my friend who is a screenplay and novel writer and uses it for professional purposes (to get reach and be seen interacting with "the right people", as he admits), over there you get *actively* hidden unless you are a paid account AND have already a bunch of the "right" followers.

So factually speaking, Nostr is better for small individual accounts.

nostr is better period

not healthy to break one's own brain in a tribalist cult

Yeah, I think so. I don't know the true paid/unpaid impact, but that seems to be the thinking. I'm a paid account over there... and not just to rank better, but I'm truly grateful for what Elon did (no matter his true motives). It was world-changing, so unless it gets really ruined someday, I'm a supporter. So, not trying to be down on X at all!

But, I also see the value in Nostr being successful, so really excited in what is going on here. I'm an old-school blogger, hugely into podcasting, etc. We have to move the world back towards our own sites, feeds, etc. and not a few platforms (no matter how good/useful they've been in some ways).
