I really don't get the people that complain that they don't get followers on Nostr because there is no algorithm.

I never got any followers in any of these platforms with algorithms (even though I used them actively for years), except when by some unexplicable hit of luck some people started using @lntxbot on Telegram and by word-of-mouth it got to Alex Bosworth and he mentioned it on tweet and then my follower count slowly grew from 50 to like 5000 over a 3-year period.

Is there a magic trick that allows you to go from 0 to 100000 by gaming the algorithm these days and then scam your followers a high-ticket course about how to get followers and become a millionaire? Or what are these people talking about? Why do they even want followers in the first place?

I gamed the tiktok algorithm to get 100,000 followers and then I started selling a $1 course to create scholarships but it failed because people literally want to be grifted and hate you for trying to do the right thing....... so now I'm on nostr and use the edtech platform to introduce people to a better internet.

~100-200 followers on nostr, but it feels better because it feels like the internet instead of constant promotions & commercials
