Congrats, no one uses nostr today 👍
Discussion
You and I are literally using it right now! 🤣🫂
It’s a small group, but we are growing and will be discovered more and more.
Yes, I agree, I’m just trying to be realistic - nostr today doesn’t have a lot of problems not because nostr solved them - but mostly because there are no interest to abuse nostr right now because of the tiny userbase
However, constant messages about how great nostr today makes a lot of unaware people to believe that will always stay the same. And others as a consequence believe nothing should be done with nostr cause nostr already won
Instead it would be great to focus on future and understand what should be improved :)
True, but it’s been over a year, and it could have been a lot worse!
I see it as us having the time to build and prepare for these issues to come.. It feels like we are building a sold base.
So far so good at least.
And yes, it’s almost Friday 🫂
I’m really hope its just me seeing tons of hopium instead of real solid preparation :)
I thinks it’s both.. I’m guilty of being too positive on nostr, but I spend most my social time here and it has been only positive.. High hopium for sure.
But we are also building. New, solid clients that filter bots. Nostr.build just implemented a CSAM filter (our only filter), haven’t needed it but want to prepare. Good things keep coming.. Also, it doesn’t need to be the biggest in the world, as long as Nostr doesn’t break..
We are using Nostr right now despite all those problems you aren’t really mentioning.
A sheer amount of features and improvements have been shipped so far addressing yesterday’s and todays problems and the focus should remain there.
Again, hope it just me over pessimistic.
But I’m looking at my personal experience at nostr and its not comparable to what was on twitter at all, not by quantity but by quality, I have to watch tiktok after deleting twitter :)
I look at nostr global stats and they are very disappointing
I look at your profile and see you are ex relay operator :(
I still don’t see even a hint to people working on incentives to run a relay - I don’t ask for incentives already, I don’t even see people who think its important :)
So yeah, there are some vibe happening at making twitter clones and rewriting internet to work on a single mobile device, but in general it seems to me there is rather nothing to be happy about long term
