Deactivated my twitter account
I have 30 days to reconsider or it will be permanently deleted
This is the start of my 30 day, full-time Nostr trial
Let the games begin
Discussion
🔥
Welcome to the party!
This is the way
Good start, but this is an indication to me that you already know what you should do.
I made a final (pinned) tweet saying I was going #Nostr only so other people could potentially see it and do the same. My goal is to encourage others to take the leap.
Just do it and don't look back. I don't regret it.
YES
This is the way.
Sometimes it's best to burn the ships so you can't go back
Great! You will not regret about this.
I deleted my account before Elon bought it. I used Nitter to checksome accounts after that but Elon has blocked every access to the site apart rom those with accounts so there's no way for me to see anything now. It's a shame but I'm not going back & it's been a couple of years I prefer life with less social media anyway.
Same
There is no second best
imagine them enabling zapps anytime soon
then imagine the tax form you'd be asked to fill out
"zapd for lolz, get fucked" 😆
Ufff I love that
I’m following because I except a day to day report. Because I’ve been considering
Quit using hard drugs
That what nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx said.
welcome to nostr
What took you so long?
welcome!
Oh hell yeah. Glad you made the switch. You were one of my favorite accts 3-4 years ago when I deleted that shit show app. Glad you're here!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Get a graphene os so it will get harder to go back to twitter, as the clients on fdroid sucks.
Grow up. Leave your x
I'm considering to quit X also. I will definitely not miss any Bitcoiner here 😂
Your happiness about to go up a lot 🫡
Glad to see more and more people making that leap. Welcome home DrBitcoinMD (sounds like you’re in the right place 😂)
👋 You’re welcome to #followme and my following list if you are interested in #Bitcoin, #Nostr, Bitcoin merch, and random jokes and fun in between. A few of the people I follow could care less about posting Bitcoin stuff so check those out too! The more people you follow the better 👍
Another thing some people do is list down some of the things they are interested in, then maybe you can get some suggestions on hashtags or people to follow. Can find a lot of interesting stuff that way.
This is a great source to get you started if you have questions about parts of the Nostr process. If you are not a fan, DON’T GIVE UP. At least try a different Client first. What client/clients are you currently using? Some popular ones I see that people use a lot are Amethyst, Damus, Primal, and Nostur. It’s important to try and keep this alive and moving forward. Join us!

Once you do have a good handle on Nostr in general, this youtube vid will show you how to set up that lightning feature for payments if you are running Damus. The same thing applies to other lightning wallets as well if you don’t have or want or have access to Wallet of Satoshi
Last one that i like to tag on I just recently found. IntuitiveGuy is worth a follow. Great amalgamation of content just like this but in WAY more detail:

wassup homie
Good work sir. I wiped all my socials and went full #Nostr months ago. Once you look around and explore everything you'll find that there is quite alot of potential for well, everything.
do you feel better already?
I support your divorce from twitter! If you choose to be a #NOSTRich... Welcome! 
Other than YouTube, I'm all in on nostr. Never looked back. I'm about 3mos in. I using Odysee to help ween me off of YouTube. Then I'll slowly phase over to lightning.video you're gonna love it here. Hello and welcome 💪🏾😁👍🏾
🔥 I’ll be following to see how it goes! I’m likely not far behind.
💪
Notes >> tweets
Good luck mate. I'll need to follow suit soon I think.
Dr. , hello
That’s Commitment! I’m slowly getting there too.
NOSTR forever!
fuck yea
you will never go back at this point
i already abandoned X when it became X, i already knew what an agent provocateur Musk was and i'd just watched the altcoinocalypse of 2021 before that that made me into a bitcoin maxi
i just want to say that it needs to be known that the sooner this protocol's development and hosting is fully a circular economy, where it needs no money to maintain its decentralization, the better
so, please do sign up for nostr.wine and nostr.land - these are the two best paid relays, and get a nostr.build account (yes i have all these, i'm doing this because i believe in it), and lastly...
say what you think, nobody is gonna shadowban you, you aren't going to have your messages memory holed, this is not possible with this protocol, it's been designed to be resistant to that
Welcome! I deactivated mine late October. Never went back, I don't regret it.
I don't know anyone, here or there, if you have any contact there, wait for the last day, then let me handover in order to finish it.
One of my favorite people back when twitter was twitter.
Give him a follow, you won't be disappointed.

I’ve stolen a thing or two from nostr:npub18678fyrar7fg7gy77ggwsuk2cqe74ull38ng2v5x63werc63a70qw02kgq a while back 😅 
what an honor!

Mine as well. 🤘🏻
Idk till he sticks it out with nostr.
Welcome 🤙
Suuuuup
Well done.
I tried once.
Willing to try again
Based on
Fuck the man
Stick with it
Nostr only! Excellent news!
Welcome Dr.

This is the way.
welcome to the purple side
This is the Way! 🕺
Welcome to free speech
I hope you don't miss the algo too much.
now you are the algo...
Glad you are here.
you'll be surprised at how much better you'll feel. Welcome
Welcome 🤙
Congratulations. I had to make the same decision. For professional reasons, I decided to keep my account of 15 years in existence so I could still contact people directly, but I never post or reply publicly anymore. I discovered a way to publish all of my Nostr posts on my Twitter account, so that’s all anyone sees there. If you go ahead with deletion, you should at least download your full backup in case you want access to your old content.
Perfect!
You’ll head back to Twitter. They always do.
I’ll be amazed if you make it 10 days.
Oh, and welcome.
If "they" be me then you'd be wrong. Never went back.
The big accounts. They always go back. The pull of the algo is strong.
Small fish like us, we stay. We good. You good.
Define big? I bet I'm taller than him. Maybe even weigh more. Plus my kids do what I say. I'm the big account round these parts. I've got the signing devices. I've got the UTXOs. ;-)
The pull of the freedom algo is stronger. Eventually they'll come here. Maybe also for the zaps.
Worth a ⚡️zap⚡️ for that!
Lost my Twitter account last year because I didn’t have access to the email I used when I signed up in 2011.
Wasn’t a problem until Elon took over.
Twitter is not as bad as most of them for censorship. Still shitty though.
Come on in. The water’s fine.
If you have an android, try Amethyst. The client you use makes a big difference in the feeling!
There is a line that separates the mans from the kids.
Line of courage and discipline that separates men from kids.
Mobius: WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!
I am positive that once you try #nostr, you are going to stick with it.
It's better than any other social media and protocols.
Welcome 😊
welcome!
Some tips: use invidious to ditch the youtube website,
there are alot of big tech alternative front-ends to use to resist their abusive terms and conditions.
And alot of freedom here.
It's a little odd the withdrawal from the algs... But believe me. You are relieved once you're through it.
Welcome to #nostr
🍻 😎 🫂 💜
Welcome! you made the right move
withdrawal will hit hard... but always remember: be part of the world you want to create
Come for the freedom, stay for the zaps.
Missed you homie

BOLD ACTION.. 🔥
Welcome. It's a lot better here
It may feel boring at first until you embrace the peace. Twitter messes with your dopamine triggers
Day 2
I can see the potential, but I need to find my friends if this is going to work
If you're a bitcoiner, please respond to this note so I follow you

Check follow lists of other folks.
Remember, you are the algo here.
Debase
Just find one friend and follow all theirs? Follow widely and then post use the ones that bore you. After coming so late you need to be putting more work in than this. No one owes you anything, go back to Twitter if you want algos
🤙
Nostr go up 🚀

You can follow hashtags too if you’re looking for a particular subject instead of people

Life is about to improve by orders of magnitude 🫂🧡
Let’s fucking go! ⚡️⚡️
Welcome. The road is still under construction so the scenery isn't great, but the destination is immaculate.
Yeah man, I'm here too, not very much interaction. Not that I post anything phenomenal but used to be we all followed other bitcoiner accounts and talked the shit. maybe just not enough people here yet but I get hardly any follows and hardly any interaction. I've tried this a few times so far with similar results. I think it gets a little better each time
Welcome, sweetheart 🧡 Sometimes it's not about quantity
Bitcoiner 🙋🏻♂️
Nice work. I deleted X off my phone back in December & not looked back
What are you most looking to learn?
Oi! :)
Deleted X for Nostr too. Have to admit feeling s bit lonely this early in the adoption curve.
I guarantee that your experience will be much pleasant and constructive here on Nostr, I deleted X 3 months ago - it was the best decision ever made, here I can earn #Bitcoin, no post limits, no community notes, no troller in chief, no ads or campaigns, no clickbait or bots, no politics propaganda and surely no subscription payments. You can use Damus on ios or Amethyst for android, including Primal for web.
I like the corn🌽
one of the First #Bitcoin Twitter accounts I ever really resonated with.
Great Dude
Worth a Follow 🤝

Welcome to the big dick club
Day 3
I woke up this morning and didn't automatically reach for my phone and start scrolling through my twitter feed.
I didn't realize how much that consistently affected my mood and mindset for the day.
This feels like breaking a severe sugar addiction.
Sometimes I still reach for my phone, searching for the app (now deleted).
Dopamine and outrage is the product.
nostr:note1khpgn90mulqrx6tmlrdunaya7yknr5ncgg6n2ywddsean25mn59q0zq20z
#nostr is way addictive than twitter tbh.
Yes, I concur 🙌🏽 however #NOSTR feels like it has healthy boundaries, while tweeter is like that HELL scene in the movie Constantine.
#yestr
I find this interesting. I singed up to twatter when it was first released. Decided not interested within 48 hours. I got on it in 2022 for curiosity and followed people that popped up on both sides. Both sides of whatever quite frankly. From Covid to vax to climate change to politics and economics. Whatever. Just to watch. I tried interacting with the odd innocuous question to posts. On one viscerally abusive response from a tenured professor I actually responded asking why the abuse considering I simply asked a question on a technical elaboration. His answer was “I’m really sorry, twitter does this to me sometimes”. I found it easy to close the account. It’s very sad as without the toxicity, it had the potential to be a global commons. Nostr certainly has the potential to rectify this division creation matrix. Good luck with cold turkey detox and enjoy mental freedom. Maybe best to leave the phone alone for a while too. Go for a walk in the morning instead. Smile and talk to those you come across
LFG
Day 4
Still here
It gets quiet from time to time and that's ok
Learning to accept the tides rolling in and out, instead of a the constant stream of content through a firehose
It’s nice to have little breaks
It's one of the first things I noticed about this protocol.
Welcome! 🤙🏻🫂
Day 5
People have started to reach out to me to check on my wellbeing.
"Suspended, surely. It was a matter of time."
They're stunned that this is a voluntary decision.
As I learn about and discuss Nostr, I feel exactly as I did on the topic of bitcoin a decade ago - mostly blank stares, confusion, and eye rolls.
The sparks of understanding and insight are addictive. I want to share it with the world, though I know from experience most will not be ready.
In Greek mythology, Cassandra was a Trojan priestess dedicated to the god Apollo and fated by him to true prophecies, but never to be believed.
We, as bitcoiners and nostriches, have the curse of Cassandra.
Right, but early.
Most won't believe us and it can drive us mad if we let it. I'd like to believe we can always play the role of touchpoint, even if we're not the ones carrying someone across the finish line in every instance.
👊
Hi. I came from Twitter.
how it's going?
deleted?
