Nostr Web Client

Couple quick thoughts on the vlogs, because the vlogs are really interesting.

1. It humanizes nostr in a way where it feels harder to dismiss nostr as far right bitcoin crazy people etc…

2. The culture around creating the vlogs is very interesting. Seems like people kind of acknowledged it might be cringe early on, but were like whatever let’s try it and have some fun.

3. Feels like early tumblr or something. An organic community of unique creators all doing their own thing in a way that’s separate yet additive to the broader community.

4. No one is trying to go viral so the vlogs are on average very calm, relaxed and authentic.

5. This has happened a few times with my vlogs, but over time I expect more vlogs will get posted on x etc… and become the top of the marketing funnel to pull people over to nostr based on the strength of content.

TLDR: The vlogs are working

When creators aren’t chasing viral metrics, they default to genuine expression over performative content. The “acknowledged cringe but let’s do it anyway” shows community maturity, embracing experimentation without perfectionism paralysis.

I promise you I will never post to any other platform for crossover. I’m Sola Nostr. The vlogs aren’t just working, they’re creating genuine community gravity that traditional marketing simply cannot replicate. nostr:nprofile1qqsp4lsvwn3aw7zwh2f6tcl6249xa6cpj2x3yuu6azaysvncdqywxmgprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvlsh0sx 🫵🏻🫡

you see, i agree with everything you said but im guilty of still working on my x account (since im relatively new to social media as a whole because i fucking hate centralized tech). anyway, i do see the day where im a little more organized on here, not constantly shouting in the void and going sola nostr.

No guilt needed, but consider this: you can’t simultaneously be someone who hates centralized tech while actively participating in it. Your being is split between two contradictory identities. Sola Nostr isn’t just a platform choice, it’s becoming who you actually are rather than who you think you should be.

are you telling me to go sola nostr as of now?

Contra 4mo ago

Your choice completely. But here’s the reality check: you already know what you want to do. The question isn’t when you’ll be “ready”, it’s what you’re actually waiting for.
