When collaborative content creators are on Nostr, it’s easier to give them feedback. The smaller audience aspect of it here is ironically a feature because I can be more blunt, while sharing it elsewhere.

Tomorrow I’m going to pin this interview to my Twitter/X profile for a month, due to title changes made from Nostr feedback here.

Sure, I could give feedback via email or DM, but if you’ve seen my emails and DMs, and the sheer amount of stuff there, you’d see why I suck on those fronts and am not very responsive aside from close contacts.

I have a couple favorite summaries of my Broken Money content that I point people to if they don’t want to read a 500 page finance book.

-One was a key Princeton talk I gave last year. It set a new video record for the Princeton Economics channel by an order of magnitude. Their top video ever by an order of magnitude. The power of bitcoiners.

-The other is a Broken Money visual explainer video that I commissioned for five figures because, as the Joker would say, “it’s not about the money, it’s about sending a message.” That got even more views at 300k and counting, plus like a million more on Twitter.

-This interview with Max, published today, might be the best new place I’ll point people to for a Broken Money summary. It’s the third one, and among the top. Like, I’m going to send people to it before sending them to the visual explainer I commissioned for five figures. I’m happy to disrupt myself once something better emerges.

Full send. Thanks to Nostr.

As a content creator it’s really hard to balance the line between catering to an algorithm and creating for the art of creating

perfect example — i spent a couple hours trying different titles, nothing really stuck. wasn’t fully happy with any of them. then i posted it, got feedback, changed it — and the new one is just way better. thanks nostr:nprofile1qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncpzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpzpmhxue69uhh2uewwf38ytnzd9hs6g07ln

this is the difference. on nostr you’re able to post what you think. no second-guessing what’s gonna perform. it’s raw. people like it, hate it, ignore it. that’s it.

on youtube i don’t even get to that point. if i don’t play the game, the content doesn’t get seen at all. the algorithm kills it before people can even decide for themselves

that’s why this place matters

LFG - Nostr 4 All (or those willing and able)

Trying different titles while the content was online for a couple of hours.. ? Doesnt that need more time?

No that’s coming up with an actual idea - before posting.

It’s super important for the discoverability on YouTube that’s why it’s such a pain in the ass and most creators choose to go with clickbait…

In this case I also leaned more into that

most of the SM algos pay close attention to reactions to content in the initial period its a filter whether to pick it up and show to a wider audience

I hate the YouTube algorithm game so much… but you also have to play it if you want your content to be shown to a wide audience… and when you have content that can actually HELP a wide audience, you want to do everything you can to get the message out there… but that often involves making things more “clickbaity”… I hate it.

love to see nostr:nprofile1qqs0ulmtcmmn8zmkh0uqmdqz4hn9j5lzpvhj8enw3xpqfd3ucsjnngcpramhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0v3jhyatwdejhyuewdejhgam0wf4szrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqz8mhwden5te0dehhxarj9ejkjmn4dej85ampdeaxjeewwdcxzcm9fma2ah nostr:nprofile1qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9uju6mpd4czuumfw3jsz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wsq3yamnwvaz7tmsw4e8qmr9wpskwtn9wvql3tqm nostr:nprofile1qqsvfr3f7p95stxqrjslnmuvsmhcxxxqt8swjdfjx5tz7zq0yms5cygpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwd4hhxarj9ec82css0rm9g thread collabs

As a content creator myself, it's nasty.

Thankfully, gematria and numerology helps out with starting projects that may last for a long time (like what I did when I started my podcast on January 8th).

All day !!! I find myself IRL always seeking the hidden spot . The place or venue that is fine in quality and just enough in quantity . Even though I appreciate the energy I get to exercise amongst the commons say IG and YT . I want to actually mingle on NoStr . The most wealthy and valued experience no matter where our Biology is present as a person these qualities are present . A good vibe I’m seeking no matter if in Indonesia ,Cape Town or Richmond ,Va . Thanks for your post and repost . I’m slowly transitioning. You just made it a bit more easy to break old habits . Peace Max ✅✅

Exactly

Respect… like it… ‘up for disrupting myself’… keeps us honest
