It’s hard to believe that the vast majority of people have no idea how fast and how hard nostr will change the world

This must be the feeling 2010-bitcoiners must have felt

Must protect the relays, they will try and take them one day.

It’s ok. Outbox model makes that non-problematic. Though it might have a chilling effect on running relays in tyrannical jurisdictions such as North Korea, New York, etc

Exactly, check out the Web5 Nostr dapps https://luvnft.com

It bothers me that I can’t see it as clearly.

Like with so many things that have made a difference, I’m attracted to it and like it but don’t know why.

Have to look further into it.

follow that instinct

Yeah, I’m still not sure how we keep relays from centralizing over time.

There might be a solution, though. 🤷‍♂️

Big relays aren’t a huge issue

Nostr is about optionality

But if the network coalesces around a handful of large relays, there’s more room for censorship.

Outbox

I’ll look into it 🙏

No, we're a lot better than they were back then. They didn't have the resources and celebrity support back then. Now Bitcoin has blazed a trail through the wilderness.

agreed

Best time be alive isn’t

90% of people don't even understand there is a problem let alone think they need a solution.

Or care. Most will use whatever is convenient & what is popular. The same people if they ever acquire bitcoin will not take self-custody either. The notion that millions of people will flood to Nostr because Twitter, FB, TikTok etc are spying & selling user data is purely wishful thinking imo.

Yes

No, we had no idea 😂

Feels like 90s Internet.

That’s the sense I get, too. I was there in the 90s.

Minus the millions of dollars being made 😭💔

🎯

I even feel like I’m missing out on a lot of nostr stuff 😅

I am discovering the [signed events relayed] is the secret sauce. While we are experimenting with a Twitter replacement, the far more powerful model is the open authentic (censorship resistant) orchestration of digital services. New use cases await us!

.. with likely the same actually experienced speed of change 😝

crucial to get foundations correct upon which the world can be built 🔥

Internet users pre dotcom explosion too.

Can't come soon enough!

you fucking idiot bitcoin literally made zero difference to the world except wasting an amount of energy that could have lifted entire nations out of poverty ...

Do we have reliable datas on adoption ?
