Why is Bitcoin Twitter a thing when we have nostr now?
Discussion
Inertia
For sure. Damus has really improved and other clients are just as good. As Bitcoiners shouldnāt we be aligning our values with the tech we use? Been thinking about this lately.
Using the word should for anyone other than yourself is a nonstarter for me. If using Nostr over Twitter makes you feel better, do it.
I'm excited to see Primal in action and I bet that brings more people along
Probably because of better app / UX usability and bigger userbase,l. It's tough to get users to replace habits or switch apps
Very true plus the monetization aspect for the big names on Bitcoin Twitter. They would probably lose money by switching to Nostr primarily
Agreed, the monetization in Twitter for top accounts is a big deal. Nostr will get there and zaps will increase with time.
I have faith that it will. Nostr feels old school but in a good way. Like itās being used the way that it should and not a data harvesting machine with a social media veneer.
