This whole year, in isolation and after lots of analysis, I really had the opportunity to change the way I see social media and the way I show up. Unfortunately, social media is messed up nowadays; it has definitely been the year when I posted less, scrolled less, and cared less about what anyone has to say or post. I also came to realize that you don’t have to have an online opinion about everything. As an introvert, most of the time I choose to sit back, keep my thoughts to myself, and enjoy the show from a distance.

But, to be honest, expectations were high when all this Nostr thing started.

Maybe it's not the protocol, maybe it's not the developers; probably, actually, no one cares, really. And the solution is to completely disappear from the online world.

Algunas veces pienso lo mismo de desaparecer del mundo de la internet o solo deambular como lobo solitario. Pero debe ser mas que nada por tanto anormal que se a estado conectando en la internet.

En realidad esto está naciendo ahora, no está optimizado, no existen Algoritmos Tóxicos. Nones una rrss al uso. Se está definiendo. Nostr es un Protocolo que da la oportunidad de crear una nueva forma de construir "espacios, clientes" que te conectan con otras personas del mundo 🌎

Ahora bien; por la forma que nace y en el seno de la comunidad que nace Nostr tiene unas características intrínsecas que conviene entender, a la hora de crearse expectativas; nace en un antorno BITCOINERS y los primeros pobladores [como en el Oeste cuando iban a por el Oro], todos somos amantes de Bitcoin y de su Revolución. Quizás la mayoría de los intereses de esta Comunidad giran en torno a eso.

Pero aquí cada cual puede tener su motivación, ya llegarán nuevos Nostr'ers de todo tipo.

Claro que eres interesante, nunca te había leído. 🌲❄️🫂

It’s not social media that’s messed up, it’s that people are, technology and the internet is a completely neutral thing, there are of course dodgy algorithms and walled gardens that somewhat slander productivity, but you also have days where you scroll past and think wow… I never knew that before…

It’s been a net negative and net positive in many ways, I believe it’s way more of a net positive as it brings further education, knowledge and viewpoints into fruition, the internet and social media is almost like a hive mind in itself, where you can share your authenticity and uniqueness to the world, and whenever you start releasing that you’re being consumed by it, take a step back. Enjoy real experiences.

I hear ya, nostr:npub1gscnk7wlcvcruw7scjhwpjrja94gfu369fzkyje6kcc0yn6rqyhscqtpjp Feels like doom and gloom are the only posts that get engagement these days. I’d rather touch grass but I keep coming back for the occasional hit of dopamine. 🤷‍♂️

Doom gloom self importance and sex sells

This is human history

If you're in social media to find someone who cares about you, you'll always be disappointed...

You should be in social media so you can care about others...

And once you make that your mission--to share yourself first--you''ll find what you seek.

Completely unrelated dude 😂

really not. i offer the same point. you want the content, you have to give it. this is not a free theatre like facebook.

it's pretty funny how far the whole social media coddling done by the algos has got with warping people's expectations.
