Replying to nobody

Tribalism, binary thinking, hostile dialog, ad hominem, thought silo’ing…

Things like that. One of the things Nostr can’t (and shouldn’t try) to fix, is the breakdown of civil discourse and the poor education in debate and oratory.

I’m seeing a lot of the same old wars and fights starting to appear. Yeah, you can mute, etc. but I think people are overall exhausted (as a whole, not specific people I’m referring to) which is why we’ve seen social media usage continuing to decline.

The issue is social, and wherever they move, they bring those issues with them.

This does not detract from the qualities or value of Nostr philosophically imo. I’m just saying I’m beginning to sense the same exhausting and isolating vibe creeping in. That’s why I value people like you so much.

Small online communities based around shared interests are far superior in terms of value to the user, I believe. Mutual respect is pretty tough to achieve when millions of people are shouting at each other.
