this is a very interesting social experience.
it has the immediacy of irc (almost.) not really but almost.
it has the graphical complexity of the stuff people that dont like the commandline enjoy
it has a fairly small but decently wide range of things going on
and it's interesting.
hmm.
cheers yall.
Hard agree.
And it isn't even really started yet. That's the absolutely mind blowing part. It looks like a Twitter clone but it's not, it is something totally new. I'm very excited to see where this goes, and feel very lucky to be here as early as I am.
whats remaining to be seen (and its important)
will scaling hurt the sweet and lovely good mornings and all that?
everyone i've talked to here has been nice.
its the aspect of small groups where everyone is on their best behavior because something is new to human nature.
it was the same as twitter was, in 2006/7 and every social network i've ever been on, since 96 onward.
there are growth metrics and critical breaking points, and it's almost impossible to articulate unless you have observed it a few dozen times.
it's imho a human nature thing, though - and it will be interesting to see how this reacts and responds.
i'm gandering similarly, but the big additional factors are :
-definitive core culture,
-change in the "times" we live in, (if you can't see the govt hates everything and is satanic and the nephilim try to control everything- by now; You're asleep at the wheel)
-slightly different use metrics/community focus
-always leave room for option D
:)
It seems like we are at the beginning of something so profound it could change everything. I love Nostr because it feels like the early internet - liberating, wide open, endless possibilities. I love that I don’t have to worry about being banned for “wrong think” either. Having ⚡️’s here only adds to the potential of what this will become.
