De-bitcoinfied my profile to be more newbie-friendly.
No mention of b word
No mention of zaps
Just hello, welcome, and get to know people 🤝 the good old fashioned way.
Who knows, may even use my non-nerdy name 😮
Discussion
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like it. Thank you for taking the lead on this, king. I'll remove SOME of mine.
💜 I thought: maybe the laser eyes are scary to people 😆
I may be wrong, but I think most of the newcomers are here *because* of the Bitcoin integration.
De-bitcoinfied your profile also de-catfied as well. 🐱🐈🐈⬛😹🙀😿😸
Yeah. I mean, half the profiles have B in them and other laser eyes. For names it’s 80% hodl. I can see why people might think this is a cult 😂. Not asking anyone to change, just made the decision for myself.
That is a tragedy sadly
Didn’t realize you were so attached to the cat. I would have found you a therapist first or something. 😛
Cat is the therapist!!!
Just shitposting. I think it’s a great idea, this isn’t about Bitcoin, it’s just part of the fabric. I look forward to the day Bitcoin will be nothing special, just money.
I know. I’m just busting your little furry balls. Unless you’re a female, my apologies. Or is that even a pc thing to say anymore? I don’t even know.. fml 🤦♂️
PC? Dunno, I’m on iPad.
Got furry balls (need to groom…). Did my PoH (Proof of Human) yesterday after seeing yours. But some plebs wanted the bunny back…
I totally get it. I also let a bunch of anons dictate my life. /s jk. 😂
?cid=2154d3d7x4mi6sau5pltwax9gjrjxdomazo1n5cgcskctmsm&rid=giphy.gif&ct=gInteresting take. I think more actual profile photos is a good step we can take. Same with less lingo
I hope more people do it but it’s their choice and I respect it.
🤙💜
It’s nice to be able to identify Bitcoin-only people right away, but I think you have the right idea.
💜
I changed from my real profile pic last night.
It's a tough crowd here on nostr.
Tough how? Don’t be mistaken, it’s a bunch of tough sounding dudes with soft hearts.
I only mean "tough" by....
Posts about Bitcoin, monetary policies or new nostr nips get much more attention and praise than other "normal" content. But it might just be my circle, lol.
Following more hashtags the past few days, to mix it up. Spend a lot more time in global, too.
New non-nerdy newbie-friendly welcoming name suggestions:
you’ll rebitcoinified it soon
#bitcoin 🧡
Thanks Karnage! This is a positive move. I like everything you have been doing! 🫂😃🤙🫡🫡🫡🫡
I am following your lead Karnage. I updated my bio. I turned OFF my onlyzaps. Back to likes for me.
Thank you #[1] love is the way. 🫂🫶
Yes! I agree 🫶✌️💜🫂
Changed my bio. Removed my onlyzaps. Back to likes. 😃🤙
I think it is less about not mentioning it at all and more about having other content for newbies when they are browsing.
I remember when I first started using Mastodon it was only open source discussion or some kind of communist discussion. Only having interest in open source was not enough to keep me coming back.
Hey, brother! If you're all about flexing those muscles, I might just be the perfect workout buddy for you!
