Posting on Twitter feels like a rip-off now. Like I bought the small pack of berries at the organic market for $4.99. I can afford it, but I don’t because it’s a shit deal. I get the same ones here at the farmer’s market for $3. It’s not only about what you can afford, but a sense of getting a fair price.
I have more reach on Twitter than I do here, but I always feel cheated as I know the algo isn’t picking up my posts for all my followers. Plus Twitter owns my content *and* I pay for it. And for whatever reason I’m always bleeding followers, rarely acquiring new ones.
With Nostr the people who are online see my posts. If people like them they follow, don’t like, unfollow. It’s free, and I own my posts.
I *can* keep posting on Twitter. And I get value from some of the accounts there. But it feels gross, like I got a bit scammed, so I find myself increasingly posting here.
