Losing a battle doesn’t mean losing a war. But it’s important to recognise when a battle is lost, so that you can find new terrain to fight on, such that the larger war may be won.
That’s the essence of the post.
It’s a call to find a better message for NOW, and the near term.
Longer term, censorship resistance may be a battlefield worth re-engaging on.
Personally I am NoSTR only. I am staying her no matter what. Even if I post in the abyss of loneliness
FB, Instagram, Tik tok, Twitter are so predatory in their manipulation of ones brain I am never going back
Nostr should be exclusive. Bitcoin only. Invite only.
BTC mooning (which it will) will drive people here in droves. Especially when they eventually get fucked in the ass by their current providers claiming free speech.
Nostr lives & dies with BTC or it has already lost. Bigly.
We need pay to post, I'm sick of poor clogging up my feed
Its a difficult argument to make but I support this 100%
Bigly bo diddly 💯
When the choices are a hard freedom or an easy enslavement, most people will choose the easy enslavement.
But Bitcoin and Nostr change the game by making freedom a hell of a lot easier, so I think it'll work out. The game is changed: easy freedom vs easy enslavement.
Why invite only?
Because.
I rmemeber ICQ was invite only too at first!!!
I think this adds one more layer of user quality even if very minimal its worth it.
Better than charging everyone that's for sure.
But the invite will make sure that nouns are not treated as disposable marriages but something of value whether its SATs or an invite from a limited or fluctuating supply.
When you open a hedonist amusement park, you still install turn styles at the entrance....
