I don’t want to be a Debbie Downer™ but I don’t think masses of TikTok people are coming to the #Nostr. Just like the handful of Reddit people didn’t stick around long, and like how some Boobsky tourists showed up for a few weeks last summer.

Turn on your Bullshit Detectors. nostr:note1q5frwmq8j0hve5v2l9hat9f95l5vedhw3ktlk7pd35e2cqln7h4syghxcl

I think there are some legit people coming because of the post on Tik Tok but also there is a flood of fake accounts especially the ones with lightning addresses from the start trying capitalize on the increase attention on the hashtag introductions........

Hugs are better than zaps for #introductions.

I don’t pay people in my life for just showing up…

Kindness, on the other hand, is the default starting position.

Well said. I like your default stance 🫂💜

I tried to zap 10 in a row on introductions and not 1 of them had a lightning wallet

Good sign they might be real.

I have one. But not because I understand everything, but because I use the Alby extension in my browser...

You’re off to a good start. nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm requires an invite code to set up the wallet, though. They started doing that a couple of months ago.

And it's gonna change very soon!

o.l.e. -check your dms for invite code!

So true. Many people on social media are there to be brainwashed (I mean entertained). They want mind numbing cllips of stupid people doing stupid things. Or clips of sports. Laughs back and forth to numb themselves from a dismal life created by fiat.

So they ain't coming to Nostr any time soon - but I bet Nostr someday has all that TikTok has so those people end up here where large corporate interest are not rotting their brains!
