I can deal with disagreement, but everyone just standing around, staring at me in mild horror and disgust because we are all wearing good vibes, now, is mildly depressing.

I really noticed it, this week, with Semi and Will making really mild, polite, comments about someone else's algo or architectural decision and everyone like, NOSTR FIGHT CLUB!

Oh, good grief.

That was the first major spark of intellectual rigor we've seen on here, in months. Otherwise, the feed increasingly looks like a string of cheesy press releases and transparent marketing tossed out to the adoring fans and approvingly zapped by the Big Men who run this show.

Like we've recreated Twitter, but with only half of each debate, because the other half gives us bad feels and makes us feel unsafe.

it is the free speech back side isn't it ?

News, noise, nonsense, notable, notorious... all in one #nostr network.

You just need more effort to clean the things and npub you consider as dust.

Yes, because most of our team doesn't even bother engaging on here, anymore. I'm the last holdout and it's like.... Why do I bother making the effort? It actually takes a lot of time and intellectual energy, and makes me look mean.

Most of the devs on here just want to talk amongst themselves in public to market their ideas and show activity to their paymasters. They aren't looking for constructive feedback. They aren't used to receiving it and they're just offended by it.

I can also just shut up and code.

that's what you're supposed to imagine when giving a speech, not what you dream about
