Discussion
The wants mods, I am volunteering my services 🫡
🔥 Hope to see more write ups on media, blogs and other places as well as videos on wider topics around Nostr - especially on how Nostr is changing the way we view technology and innovations and redefining social media platforms .
Front page already
Same vibes like the #Bitcoin critics from 2009/10 😅
HN is typically full of skeptics. Not a reliable source of signal.
My best theory is that it’s people reading it in the morning who are tired and grumpy
😂
I always thought it’s just people who are generally pessimistic and are dissatisfied with their work. But I’m liking your theory better now.
💯
Also, working on technical things with other people for your job can put your brain into a mode where the only reason to speak is to point out something that you think is wrong.
Love the "it doesn't have algos to make you addicted, so it will fail" argument lol
Ah the classic “i’m skeptical and will focus solely on why this may not succeed” conjecture of Hacker News threads, some things never change.
The thing is they aren't wrong, exactly the same way any of you aren't wrong.
If anyone has a HN handle please post on my behalf:
"Yes the orange people be many and there's a comical amount of zap buttons everywhere, but what you can do is to put someone random guys wallet URL in your profile and voilà, you're immune to lightning without offending anyone."
Tested, works ✌️
Is this the best way to promote nostr? It's so much more than a social network, especially from a dev's perspective.
Seems like a lot of HN users are getting hung up in the use of bitcoin on nostr, as if it’s a required part in the protocol.
agreed. but also HN tends to be an echo chamber of anti bitcoin rhetoric. words like “decentralization” immediately provoke a negative reaction. ironic how a tech forum for hackers has such a hard time grasping money over IP.
Orange Coin Good
Orange Site Bad
