The majority of users here don't help either. The constant flood of bots, cringe bitcoin memes, and inability to gain traction by posting normal stuff.

"Alternative social media" won't gain traction with normie because its so difficult to join or create like minded communities without being bombarded with nagging, politics, or news.

Any new place pops up everyones so eager to make a name for thenselves. The problem is every developer is working on the wrong thing. A better social... Social networks aren't the problem the problem is all these developers are monkey see monkey do. They just copy what proprietary companies do & go well it's opened sourced.

Like who was the fucking moron that invented the upvote downvote karma system redshit has? Idiots like it & now they want it in open source socials. What about the reelfeed in instagram above your feed? Another idiotic idea I don't need a small rectangle below my nav giving me a second feed of videos on one page.

Then you got these new devs well lets just make a new social & copy everyshitty thing they did. How about you be original & not create another social network? Now you won't be apart of the problem. A new social network is a new problem & all it does is benefit proprietary companies because it's new territory to stomp their feet on.

If I could control every developer on nostr. I would have them develop the one thing that would actually be beneficial to everyone & create opportunity to make money. Thats..... well if I told you then you might steal my domino plan.
