Why do most people leave? Seems to be because of the Bitcoin chatroom vibes? What is the solution? It'll probably take a while pre-existing community deciding of their own volition to join here to change the atmosphere.

It also doesn't help that primal is one of the biggest clients and caters to increasing the Bitcoin Twitter chatroom vibes (recommended users and sidebar).

When you state this tho you get a couple of responses.

1) it's not true that nostr is a bitpxintwitter chatroom

2) it is but that's a good thing

Lol

the it is a good thing response is utterly cultish

Doesn't really matter what features you have.

An Instagram client - it'll be full of Bitcointwitter 'memes'.

A tiktok video client - it'll be full of Bitcointwitter 'memes'.

Etc

someone needs to run a new primal, same code but for something like homesteading.

You can have it so it excludes Bitcoin chat and it also excludes people who 'trend' because they have lots of followers (given by primal lol). Ie have an inverse primal influencer list that automatically excludes eg (bless him) Derek Ross (et al).

It’s the Bitcoin — the large swathes of people who have made it their entire personality and congregate here.

I get a “not terrible” amount of engagement when I post things, which is very nice. But it’s the Bitcoin content that stops me from opening up the feed more often.

Even a good amount of the visual artists are guilty of this. It’s depressing.

It's an unfortunate aspect of the meta which is partly accidentally and partly intentionally (eg primal) made here.

Musicians, artists, poasters make stuff about Bitcoin and/or nostr, because the meta is geared towards it. It's pretty much noslop lol

who left?
