💯 Using Twitter is nothing to be ashamed of. Many marginalized groups, people around the world, and journalists use Twitter to reach a broad audience and connect globally. This is an opportunity to make Nostr known. Anything else is wishful thinking and doesn't do justice to the project. nostr:note10yzcjks808tzlvachhc38etaxr90cv5jykg9h8h3umd2xmcrj7eqp9kr3f
I may have nuked my Twitter account, but that move isn't right for everyone. The Nostr conversation on Twitter still needs to continue.
On Twitter, I had over 18K followers. All I've discussed over the last 18 months has been Nostr. They've all seen my Nostr conversations by now. I'm not growing my audience on Twitter outside of the Bitcoiner audience and ecosystem. I was essentially speaking into the void there. I was going to purple pill any new followers. My community is already purple pilled. My community and my family are here 🥹
For those with much larger reaches outside of "Bitcoin Twitter", it makes sense to continue using Twitter with hope to purple pill as many as people possible. People such as nostr:nprofile1qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7c3mw52 that have larger reaches such as macro-economics or investing topics on Twitter. nostr:nprofile1qqs9336p4f3sctdrtft2wlqaq5upjz9azpgylhfd3dplwf005mfrr9spz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7ljf7kf also has a different reach than many, discussing human rights and various freedoms for various groups of people around the world. Or even nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qzxthwden5te0wpuhyctdd9jzuenfv96x5ctx9e3k7mgpzfmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujue3h0ghxjmcaz6nhw who has an incredible amount of reach and engagement from the wider tech community. It makes sense for many individuals to continue the conversation where more users are speaking, for now.
This will change eventually as communities and audiences gravitate towards freedom protocols and permissionless interactions. But we're not there yet and much work is to be done.
Keep building.
