Bitcoiners FUDing nostr (for silly reasons, not like legit critique or requests for improvement) for engagement is all I need to know about you as a freedom tech “advocate” and bitcoiner

I don’t get much of that content being Nostr-only 😂

Same

I’m just going to assume that bit in the parentheses is directed at me. 😁

100%! Well as in nostr is still early and has so much work to be done of constructive criticism, not protocol worship haha.

Critiques of “this doesn’t fix social media/centralized risk” and just vague tweets as more people flock here is not serious imo just a contrarian take for engagement

I would argue that Nostr isn’t still early, though. We’re 4 years into the protocol, nearly 2 years since Jack first tweeted about.

The adoption and development curve for a major shift in communications technology is MUCH faster than something like a shift in monetary standard – or that tech fades into history.

The biggest critique I hear is that “Nostr is an echo chamber”

I tell them to join and bring your friends the water is warm.

Yup, for now!

What criticisms, in your mind, are valid?

Key rotation?

Relay dependence?

A lot just with how new the protocol is. Speed, discovery, better onboarding and privacy tools for starters

We’re getting there, but a lot of work to go!
