Listened to it today at work. Really interesting about how different social media shapes not just the discussion, but the people discussing, especially Reddit vs. Twitter. I was thinking about how the culture of quickly blocking/muting people who disagrees, or as you mentioned, just misunderstands, would also be a cause of polarization and slowing down the spread of positive Bitcoin information, and thereby its adoption. Now, granted, I don't know the full story or exactly how and in what order things happened, but if the person who criticized you for what he thought was seriously telling no- and shitcoiners to get out, just got muted, no explanation, he would think of you as even more toxic and probably be even more turned off from Bitcoin because of that.

As I said, I don't know if that's what happened, but I hear a lot of podcasters talking about blocking/muting people for disagreements smaller than that one.

I have never been on Twitter, so I could be missing something (primarily thinking if maybe the culture there is so toxic you "just can't" when it comes to such things, that you have to assume that everyone is a troll until proven otherwise. I've never been on the bird app.)

Anyway, I haven't seen much toxicity on Nostr yet, which could very well be due to its freedom from centralized algorithms. Or that I haven't been here for more than a couple of weeks. Let's hope for the former.
