I tried brining a few people to nostr and they said they’d join but never did. Even the bitcoiners I invited said they’re not joining.

sad, what does that tell you?

That network effects are a thing and it’s super hard to get people to switch.

true but remember, revolutionary technology tends to go through this process and it’s gradual. and it starts by only convincing a few people (meaning no sudden mass adoption or hype).

I think there is too much bitcoin slop even for some Bitcoiners bitcointwitterers. They prefer the variety of twitter. Understandable really tbh.

this. i find it less compelling every day to be here.

How come? Can you use it in a different way that is more compelling to you?

yes, i'm actively working on the software that'll allow me to connect with like-minded individuals i share values, goals and projects with and i think nostr is the tech to build it. that keeps me going.

as a public square social network it's probably even worse than what Big Tech offers and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Glad to hear that!

I always believed the real value of the protocol will be brought to people through a use case enabled ONLY by the protocol. A novel value we havent seen yet and improves peoples lives by a lot

There’s absolutely nothing to stop someone from muting the word …

You would also have to mute a bunch of slogans and other references and you can't really mute images containing the slop. And if you somehow managed to do all this, I don't think you'd be left with much. It would be interesting to see tho.

Some get it. And some will never get it. I'm happy with the few who do!!! 🍊🫂

Tell the to HFSP

What's the reason you joined nostr?

Mostly to get off the hamster wheel.

"Even the bitcoiners didn't come" 😂 oh man

Someone has to pave the path for them 🤣

We need a new nostr app specific for bitcoiners! Oh wait 😂

Maybe we can isolate them all in there 🤷‍♂️

They would need to admit their slave brain being manipulated by social media.

You have done your job.

Haha! Its like btc. Gotta hear it a few times before they try it.

I just joined. Don’t give up hope fellow pleb.

Welcome!

i bet the bitcoiners are— paper bitcoiners

Nope

When X becomes flooded with junk, unusable. FB extends more and more reach, insta harvesting more and more data, and algorithms run rampant.. you can tell them your tried to give them the protocol of freedom, and they did not heed..
