Engage. There’s no algorithms to do the work for you.
Curate your feed. More follows, more fun!
Curation goes both ways- mute as necessary, you hold all the power to see (or not see) specific content.
Zap! ⚡️ it makes nostr more fun and creates a V4V circular economy. But it only work if everyone participates.
Say it every couple of weeks but I need to spend more time here than Twitter.
Im addicted to the Twitter algorithm. I catch myself doom scrolling and getting triggered by shitcoiners over there
Just need to focus on opening primal instead of that one when I get the urge
Delete Twitter and setup a wallet so you can send a recieve zaps
Thanks for the push! Going to rip the band aid off and delete off phone now
I have a wallet setup via nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 to receive zaps? Is it not working?
Yes! It’s more work to curate a good feed on nostr but the end result is worth it by far! #bloomscrolling

First use it just use it seems interact. And after you have settled Read the docs.
Hash tags can be followed. Use hash tag.
It's like a fine wine. Gets better with age.
Don't get too addicted
Be genuine yet fierce in the BTC way.
Don’t just paste crap - make it your own because nobody can take it away.
If you new to BTC and NOSTR. Please read nostr:npub1dpna3xwwddnhhzg9ycpvlcz2ze0jdwm2rf3eqd2lf9leaewtq7tqhw0ef2 updated version. Explains BTC well and NOSTR as well.

It works if you work it. Engagement is crucial.
Follow the hashtags of things you're interested in, especially if it's an off the wall thing. Follow people and read the comments on their notes, that's where you'll find the good content. But most of all talk to people; engage, engage, engage!!!
Provide value and find your people! Bonus tips: Don’t take yourself so seriously, you aren’t that special lol
Be your fucking self and don't take shit from anyone.
nostr:note15rjv5mxjz5n3arau953hprrgae5jhwfsmuck04dahkur4lxg5pqqwp73uw
Just find your people and connect with them: comment frequently and of course Zap the notes you find most useful.
Not looking for Zaps or a Shoutout...
Follow anyone who seems even remotely interesting.
Algorithm won't feed you content here. You need to connect with real people and interact with them. Join the conversations and add value.
And if your initial assumption about someone proves wrong, you can always unfollow anyone anytime.
#NostrTips
Try lots of clients, you will likely love some and hate others depending on what you are trying to do with nostr.
Set up goft wrapped DMS, but only use them to exchange your signal or simplex communication info.
Complain about features you want, but do it on github. Devs will implement them.
Don't try to use clickbait or gay thumbnails like people use on YouTube, the community here is averse to those dark patterns
Be real
Follow your passions
It's not all #btc
Make friends
Be kind
Practical tips: the devs are making great progress on attachments and video streaming. Keep an eye out for improvement and tip them when you can.
Be sure you have a lightning address in your profile. Zaps are another way of liking a post.
Tap and hold the like button and you can add different emoji.
Tap and hold the lightning button and you can customize zap amounts.
Frequently promote nostr on other platforms.
This community is less algo and more people driven.
Have fun.
Tip: Take your time, browse and find the right people for you to follow. You have limited time and when you first open a Nostr client your feed should reflect your interests, thoughts and hobbies.
Secret: You can have a completely anonymous second, third etc. account to express your hidden self which you don't want to reveal to the world.
