Why I'm bullish on #nostr ...

I'm on #nostr a whole lot more than I ever was on Twitter or Mastodon for two simple reasons ... the Vibe and the Tribe ... and now I'm staying here because of network effect ... I have more friends here and I like more people here than on other networks

Two great folks who come to mind when I say "vibe" are nostr:nprofile1qqsr7acdvhf6we9fch94qwhpy0nza36e3tgrtkpku25ppuu80f69kfqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09ug4n6q3 and nostr:nprofile1qqszd44fgen4ucpl3hjt7muuaazzqdahp3lwu9c07phdweelcdxf3ugpz4mhxue69uhkyetkduhxummnw3erztnrdakszxnhwden5te0wfjkccte9enk2arpd338jtnrdakj7a33qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvhj9400 ... they're such fun and helpful ... and now I have a "tribe" ... good friends like nostr:nprofile1qqs2sr7y57rrfm3x4272e9gmfn7hk44wrzat6v794lw0d0kkmjqwh5gpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqzynhwden5te0dehhxarjve6kutnrdakst0lgry, nostr:nprofile1qqs0cu4wf0x3g99dg0qz795j5taln5caux0929tkazem59pd9wqkm0spzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsz8thwden5te0dehhxarj9e3xjarrda5kuetj9eek7cmfv9kz7qgkwaehxw309ahx7um5wfjkc6t5v4ejummjvuhsk8lzt0, nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjtqf9a0vx9wrr63g7e7tscfau7c5cj3w69pczpquqkfxa5vcwcpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamnwvhj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tc8p6z8l, nostr:nprofile1qqsy07tafc9xgry2jc7nlfcanu9x4tv43ta9qhl0mmwk65577sfzaucpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43z7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7qgswaehxw309ahx7um5wghx6mmd9ucg85lr

So, network effect came afterwards. First came the positive vibes from a great tribe. It's why I STAYED

Personally, I think the vibe and the tribe of eBay made it the success it is

The fundamental question is how do you get the vibe going? For me, it was discovering #nostr and #bitcoin and how much Papa nostr:nprofile1qqsr7acdvhf6we9fch94qwhpy0nza36e3tgrtkpku25ppuu80f69kfqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09ug4n6q3 helped with that. Then, I kept asking question upon question and incredibly patient folks like nostr:nprofile1qqstwf6d9r37nqalwgxmfd9p9gclt3l0yc3jp5zuyhkfqjy6extz3jcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgmwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxyunfva58gcn0d36zumn9wshszxmhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wfcxcetzwvhxxmmd9u5ehdyr were always there.

The success of any network is a very human thing ... vibe and tribe

Question is: how do you get them going?

There definitely seems to be a better class of folks on Nostr for some reason. I agree, I like it too much better than any other. I still have to use FB because everybody i know is afraid and unwilling to even try anything but. I go to Twitter hardly ever anymore since finding Nostr.

Same here. No motivation to go to Twitter or Mastodon. FB only because of the old timers there

We're bloomrolling here. Down with doomscrolling!

We'll soon have a large tribe of Doers and Makers ... the good people ... I'm very bullish

Awwwww ! So sweet of you !!! I get what you say and subscribe! Noshole is a must, very creative young lady full of energy and "brains". There is a lot of people here with wisdom beyond years. I honestly feel at home and it's amazing how people do help and call on you, when necessary, and as it should. We play, we have fun but also we are serious and know how to take care of matters! It's a beautiful place to be in ! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ™Œ

The tribe here is incredible ... and the vibe is perfect

Nostr thrives because itโ€™s built on something real freedom, innovation, and a community that actually cares. Vibe and tribe come first, but what keeps them alive is meaningful interaction. The key? Engage, contribute, and help others find their way here. The stronger the signal, the faster the network effect kicks in. โšก๐Ÿš€

Thank you for your take maven

I defnitly also appreciate a lot, to meet the developers of my app directly within the app. Too cool.

In the whole discussion of growth, I am defnitly Team natural growth. Make the brand Nostr known, but let the people discover it. I discovered it for me. And I am sure many people out there love discovering things as well. Getting some hint in the wild, dive in and figure out how it works, with no pressure. I mean Nostr is that young, the network as a whole probably is still in beta.

So I am sure, when I just force my brother or my mum to use an account, after some days, they are frustrated about so many things and leave it behind with a taste they will remember for a long time.

Therefore I like the aspect, that technical people start out first, help to fix things. Then maby naturally some privacy and bitcoin podcaster move here, since too many people of their audience text them about it.

So I think every decision for a service has its user journey. And I rather like, when some people need 2 years from now to have heared 3 times about Nostr and then search it for the first time in their search engine. Maby some weeks later set up an account to test it. And when they get some value out of it maby they do not jump off.

But in the end every force produces a counter reaction. Therefor I will go for unforced guerilla tactics. Mention nostr in forums, news commentary section, to my friends and family. But I wait until someone asks me, how they can interact with Nostr. Let them search us first.

100% Nostr should grow from the ground up by via people who find their tribe here.

I think one of the most important ways that will happen is through smaller communities.

Will be actively working on getting a local community onboarded this evening via a custom instance of nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn's Flotilla client.

Aww๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿฅฐ

Cornychat.com was what really got me hooked. That's where I found my tribe.
