I LOVE NOSTR. I use it as my news source, my social app, and my ask-anything tool via asknostr. I struggled with it at first, because everything is so different, but boy things have improved over time! Nostr is the place to be, and i'm here for the ride😊. #Nostr 
Discussion
Me too! Still hanging on to a pair of Telegram groups that I find value in... But other than that, Nostr only
All roads lead to #Nostr eventually 🫂🕊️🙌
Ima 99% #NostrOnly but do pop in over at blue sky 🌌 now & again if a friend tags me
And I see it
this is the way. if you're not all in, you're leaving way too much room for improvement.
objectively speaking, nostr should not be the primary or sole news aggregate source
certainly not at this time
and likely ideally never
protocols dont demand loyalty
they are free
they dont ask for divestment from other places,
they exist on their own merit
they are not abusive or coercive
they do not ask anyone to put all their eggs in one basket
I keep hearing how bad mainstream social media is and how different nostr is, I don't really know because I deleted any mainstream social media I had over 6 yrs ago. Nostriss decent though, a lot of creative and smart people on here 👍
That’s nice spot to enjoy
Welcome to real interaction.
Nostr is like Bitcoin. It's a protocol, a base layer with unlimited possibilities. The more you explore and learn the more options and inventions are build on top of this sovereign and decentralized creation.
YES

Couldn't agree more, it's so different, but just cos the rest are so shit. Here for the ride too.
Inspirational!! Any tips on how to get the most out of Nostr?
It's out happy place 🧘
Me too 💜
💜
Any recommendations on who to follow for news? I still mainly use the other platform for news
Agreed 🫡🧡🫂💜. Thx 4 being here Maria. Grateful.
Best place on the internet
Bitcoin is the glue. I 💜 Bitcoiners.
Nostr is indeed the place to be. Doing my best to purple pill my peers. Not many get it though.
When we starve the beast
We take back our sovereignty
That's why we NOSTR
#haiku
Yes! 💯
When I was told about nostr I got some helpful tips, building community is about interaction, follower counts do not matter, because anyone can artificially boost their follower count and high followers + low interaction looks inauthentic.
Not to give up even if it takes weeks to get any traction or get noticed, something about low time preference.
The introduction grownostr and asknostr hashtags being useful.
I appreciate nostr:npub1wp2lcskf5cu2k44dq4cpdgk7lt8f0d0wecc68fayvun6mprcn8js8qhpv0 and nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 both gave me more helpful advice and explained things when I first got here.
People have been really welcoming and I learn something new every time I come on here.
There is a huge wealth of knowledge and wisdom on this protocol.
The vibes remind me of how people were on YouTube in the early days.
Absolutely. ... We probably need to keep keep on chipping at that cold start. Hopefully we can find a way to help newcomers get warmed up a little faster to #grownostr
Derek Ross is a good guy , working on Nostr who likes to drink beer , come to think of it , he is the first one created #beerstr

Welcome 🤗 happy to be here too. Always grateful 🥹
