It's been interesting, how it has become more and more difficult to "acquire" followers, as I've gone along.

My first npub, got to 2000 followers within weeks.

My second, got to 5000 within half a year.

This one is sort of creeping along at 450-550 for weeks and weeks.

Nostr, in general, has become so eerily quiet. I thought it was just my relay, but when I look at other relays, I see the same thing.
