1. The level of discourse has degraded considerably (if that can be believed)
2. Most replies appear to be bots
3. The “for you” feed is full of AI slop
4. Most of my “following” feed is people complaining that it has never been worse

Thank you, for explaining. Do you think Nostr is immuned to the bot replies issue? I feel like I am witnessing this here too.
Nostr is not immune, but there are web-of-trust solutions being built as we speak that will address this. I’d give it a few months
Ok cool. Thanks for expanding on that. What are a couple projects you are keeping eyes on related to WoT?I feel like nostr:nprofile1qqsqqqqqqzp8l74ff0l29zxrml8yggk8jnamje39k6e3ayzf7u5awqqpz4mhxue69uhkwun9v4h8xmm4dsh8xurpvdjszyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekxzmnyu4z9ek is one dude that made me aware there are some potential pitfalls with that too.
Shameless plug for my startup nostr:nprofile1qqstu7l4mcrgc8vy9mf55lp8q5r7e9q0t6j3vuw06p32jh5ap9pq6zspz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wchszyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekk7mf0ywqx3t
There’s also Vertex and nostr:nprofile1qqsxkduqau5h9eeaxu9cfgl9rea2nt35haqjjwxul0vuta3myg2pdjqpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ycmgv43kktndv5q3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet59up46dz6 that are doing great work among many others
Great! Thanks for sharing. I really want to understand this topic and the workings of it better. As it's also important to solutions I am working on. What are the chances you'd be down to jump on a call with me sometime and let me ask you questions and explain to me like you'd a 9 year old? 🫣😂
Happy to. In the meantime, if you want, you can listen to this episode I did with David Strayhorn, who is an expert on this subject (and also a part of NosFabrica now):
Awesome.
Wazaaaaa Avi 🤘
I follow a couple of interesting accounts that are still on X but block the rest of the feed. Here on Nostr I get more engagement despite having only 100 followers
But it was all engineered for this? It was almost intentionally destroyed. The app formerly known as Twitter was brutally butchered
