Replying to Avatar Derek Ross

When I said that Nostr allows us to be our own algorithms, it wasn't a meme. What I meant was that we have to do the work, we have to curate our feeds, we have to engage with our followers and our fellow Nostriches. Nostr is only going to be as good as you make it. Nostr has no algorithms to bring content forward. The algorithm is our Proof-of-Work.

Both a blessing and a curse. This is technical stuff and the masses increasingly want ease of use and turn key plug n play.

Maybe the next generation will be more adept at web5 style own Node and self reliance.

People only want spoon-fed content because that's what they're used to getting. Back in the day, we didn't have algos on IRC, forums, MySpace and even Facebook or Twitter. It was a firehouse.

I still believe that nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s and his idea of an algorithm store may be that sweet spot for people.
