Also, not being able to delete (effectively) doesn’t mean one wouldn’t change their mind (folks will screen shot a tweet and reveal it years later anyway). It means you put out thoughts and perspectives in real time, and if someone brings up an old note that you’ve changed your mind on you can speak to that. Greater levels of communication, honesty, and admitting mistakes or evolved perspectives rather than pretending we’re all stagnant beings.

Also nostr doesn’t incentivize clickbate or divisive rhetoric (for the sake of divisiveness), because there isn’t a rage algorithm committing it out to every eyeball on the platform. Sure, there will be trolls and anomalies to this.

#Nostr is as much a social experiment as it is a censorship resistant, decentralized, open source protocol. You don’t post to see how many views you get — you post to put your thought into the universe as a permanent timestamp. nostr:note1y5elz3zw9xgzqka603kquflhzlh27haxyq5vgq333v86ur4tdyfqxppde3
