I have been on X for 13 minutes this week, and Nostr for 6.5 hrs, and I feel at peace honestly.

The X algorithm is evil. I love you all

I opened X this morning, then immediately closed it. 😅

I’ve gone on there to look for memes and then close it because it’s all rage bait

This is why you Nostr.

This place feels cleaner and interaction seems more organic. It’s an interesting feeling. #grownostr

Exactly!

Facts

No Facebook is true evil left 3 years ago been on nosr for 2

🚀🔥🤙

Today, my first 24 hours without Twitter and i read a half of a book 🤯.

Damn! Nice

Pure evil 👿

I am a cypherpunk by heart. Which means I am much more into Monero than Bitcoin.

But I appreciate all of you builders and users of freedom and privacy tech.

i feel the same🫂

Was having a similar reflection this week

So true.

Nostr is for #bloomscrolling

I like that 😁

the X algorithm is a reflection

It is only a reflection of what you interact with most. For me, I can’t help but get into arguments about politics, science, crypto, philosophy.

Every time on go on X, I see posts from people who post rage bait, and I always give in.

It is designed to be addictive, and to maximize your screen time. That’s how X makes money.

The beauty of Nostr is that there is no incentive for it to be addictive in this way.

there is definitely that incentive for clients, but no one is taking advantage of that yet

People would just use FOSS clients that don’t show ads.

everyone acts on different incentives

True, I guess some people would use feature rich and well supported ad based clients. Kind of like choosing photoshop over GIMP, or windows over Linux

many people want their hand held with tech/apps

Because the zap environment this make the place better for who stays here

So true😇😇😇

Some day more people will come

🧡🫂💜

Go nostr only!

For all people

Here’s someone I want to spend more time talking to!

What I particularly love is that it’s how you “feel”

One can sense a difference. This will be a huge driver of adoption

Here people are kind

“Kind”

I can’t think of a single social media experience on the legacy platforms where that is the case

Fascinating

It’s the zap effect

🩷🫂💯👁️🙌

13 minutes too long

The health effects can be lasting even in small doses

We need more people to see this

Absurd how it works

We all feel the same

Gayest shit I read in a while

Muted.

It's a night and day experience. I rarely post on X but the algorithm is exhausting for sure.

For real

Working on getting more family on here. Got about 3 so far but it takes quite a bit of nudging!

I'm just starting out here but I can say that I'm increasingly convinced the algorithms are almost as much of a problem as censorship. If not more. The objective function for algos seems to be clicks and attn rather than knowledge. Huge issue.

I agree for sure

This is the way 🫡

You can be on Nostr for hours and not feel dirty.

Yep 😁
