yes! it's always been about the quality here for me as well. nostr isn't noise (i mean, it could be if you wanted, but i think you nailed it in that the technical bar to entry does make those here naturally want to do something productive). folks are here on nostr becuase they want to build something and you can basically build whatever alt social media experience you want. The process of that building also brings out a certain character in people that more often than not unites rather than divides. i might be focused on a niche project myself but that doesn't mean i'm not observing value in other various nostr niches and engaging there as well. all of that comes together to form a very unique social experience.
