Twitter is adversarial whilst Nostr is familial.

I was never on Twitter, but I watched from afar as people got plucked out of that platform for sitting outside of the Overton Window which moves every week. Also, the character limit has a stifling effect which just leads to faithless drive-by posting and I saw this salty culture bleed into the Discord servers I'm in.

Nostr is a salve. It confers agency unto its users by allowing anyone to build on it and choose relays for whatever features they want. Over here, people can opt in to algorithms instead of being forcibly funnelled through them, and I find that self-sufficiency helps people be more kind to each other. Also, value-for-value is a potent antidote for shitfluencer culture, far less clout-chasing here. We are sovereign, not sheep, and the users drive the discussion. This platform belongs to all of us, like a true public square. I love the ride-or-die Nostriches here ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’œ
