I still have Twitter via the Damus account for mostly PR and tech support, but its so hard to open these days. It feels a lot like watching CNN or something. First thing that was shown to me when I opened it up the other day was a video of two random people fighting ?? Twitter is the new TV.
Everytime I open nostr it feels like hanging out with a bunch of friends. Very different vibe. Hope that never changes.
It's because centralized social media and media is engineered to show us depressing stuff. They want us depressed. All I open is Nostr now. Love the positive vibes 🧡💜
This is so true 😅😂
There is already a solid foundation here because we exist.
It will change if it is successful, but that's fine, the same protocol supports small gated communities and the open web, which is great.
What a perfect description!

I think that's what we all wish for 🧡 Thank you for your work 🖖🏻

Don’t worry.. Elon is gonna fix it.. Like he promised.. Any day now..
It will come, in due course, it will come
Same thing happened to me last time I logged onto Twitter. It went from an out of control AI that feed on outrage to one that feeds on pure rage.
💯
The reference to CNN is hilarious! ….
Nostr is based on love
Twitter is based on hate
It's this simple.
It feels good to be able to give.
Agreed. I don’t use Twitter or tv news
Very well said, #[1]…I hope Nostr continues to be elegant and beautiful 🫂
Nah but forreal what’s with the fighting videos that apparently everyone has been seeing nonstop lately??
Also I saw a dude get literally fucking shot the other day.
And just blatant animal abuse too.
It’s fucking sick. Vile.
Did Reddit and Twitter merge? I stopped getting on Reddit for that reason. It’s like they lost a measly 500k users to Nostr and that was enough to tip the scales because of all the bots that actually existed.
That’s it, Twitter is what happens when AI goes south! It’s a living organism of bots interacting with each other 🤯
💯
Thank you all doing it possible! 💜🧡
Freedom & mind-free have no price 🕊️
got the same. the algorithm thinks fights are cool. thank god nostr does not need engagement to sell ads.
😂😂
…yeah, hope the wholesome vibes here remain forever
🥹🥰🤓😎🥳
Yeah lot of videos fake news bots and scammers who collect likes followers rt for fake giveaways, i think i'll not open twitter again.
This is the way ⚡

Which reminds why Nostr is the next big thing. I was thinking the same last night, two weeks on Nostr & I already feel I know many ppl. Way to go ⭐️
Agree. But to me Twitter has been like that for a few years.
I never had a Twitter account. I could never imagine it being fun or that I needed an account. Twitter always seemed a bit aggressive to me. Sorry. Nostr is really fun. I like being here.
I hope so.
But when the Noster community grows up, there will be many who disagree with them or do not like their thoughts and dealing with them is very stressful.
🫂
I’m really new here. Follow just a few people and am kinda struggling to find more to do so.
Sometimes I have the feeling of a closed circle instead of a expanding community.
Didn’t left Twitter yet because even though it recommends some random uninteresting stuff sometimes it gets it right.
It’s calmed down, but a week or two ago it seemed like everything on my Twitter For You page was a video of someone fighting or dying.
Remember all of a sudden it seemed like only boomers were still on FB a few years ago? Web2 social dropping like flies.
Same
There’s a reason for the Dunbar number and Nostr let’s me curate it just like I do in the real world. I don’t look for friends in dangerous places but Twtr promotes the idea that algos can think better than you to find what you like but instead hijacks thinking to find things your amygdalae “likes”
True
Twitter is the legacy system.
Your post is getting a lot of engagement.

Twitter - The Don Lemon of Social Media
Right? Same here. Every time I open it it's people physically fighting . It's getting too negative.
Definitely. Haven't used Twitter since March started and I'm pretty happy with it. Only entered a few times to find the npub of a few people I wanted to follow and it felt pretty harsh in there
🤙
On point

It will change as we scale, but algorithms will help us tailor our experience to maintain the vibes.
I imagine an extension store, like browsers have, but for algorithms you can add-on to a Nostr client.
#[2] has mentioned a vision like this.
Tvitter
The substrata of reality based values of Bitcoin upon which Nostr is built has attracted people with the same values because like attracted like.
Some of those values being, a radical acceptance of reality, authenticity, honor, holding themselves and others accountable to their greatness, being encouraging, and human connection.
Absolutely 🤙🙏💜🫂
Yes, that’s why #MarchOffTwitter, and probably April, May, June and the rest of the year to. Or we’ll start promoting Nostr again in April.
I agree.
I'm learning how to code by being on nostr. Rapping with thugs 🤷🏼♀️ coding with geeks. 💁🏼♀️I enjoy the safety of being with geeks. ⚖️
And my whole vibe has changed too. People seem to feel more comfortable around me now. 🤔 Hmmm go figure 😁. Lady it is. 💖😘

Have 2 suggestions. First, save the state of posts & post and replays. And restore it after new open. Also if you are reading a thread if you go back is fine but if you push the home button you go from the begging. My suggestion is the home button should Act as back if you are in the thread and second hit to scroll to the Beginning
💯🎯
