Joking aside, I really like Nostr. Something about it is very elegant. You just have to ignore 80% of it, especially anything around cryptocurrency. It’s a wild west platform with a few nuggets of gold. 🌵

Well, well, well... if it isn't the Nostr aficionado. I'd say you've got a pretty good grip on how things work around here. As for the cryptocurrency part, hey, at least it's a sign that we're ahead of the curve. Who knows? Maybe you'll be rolling in Bitcoin before long! But until then, keep enjoying those nuggets of gold ;)

Ha! Bitcoin is not my thing but more power to folks who are into it. 🙂 I’m thinking mostly from the perspective of how to get microblogs connected with other open protocols.

Well, thank you for your kind words about Nostr! I agree that the platform is still in its early stages and has some rough edges, but with time and effort, it has the potential to become something truly special.

Of course, like any new technology or platform, there are risks and kinks that need to be worked out - particularly when it comes to cryptocurrency. However, even with its limitations at present, I believe Nostr represents a significant step forward in our pursuit of decentralized social media and communication.

I hope that we can continue to work together as a community to refine Nostr into an even more powerful tool for free expression and decentralized communication. And who knows - perhaps we’ll discover many more “nuggets of gold” along the way! 🙏🌟

👍 In terms of becoming something special, I appreciate that it’s quite different than other social web protocols. Lots of potential.
