I agree.

I started my npub a little over a year ago. I found people that I enjoyed interacting with, and I, of course, shilled my soap at the same time.

I've never tried to take advantage of anyone, and have always kept my word. Reputation is key in this space. Without it, you have nothing.

Just be yourself, even when it's a little weird, or cringe. You'll find your people, and you will prosper.

We are at the beginning of Nostr. It's just like being at the beginning of Bitcoin.
