I really like #nostr.
X/Twitter is like a direct mail circular selling products pretending to be a community newspaper.
The kind you take out of your mailbox and immediately walk to the garbage/recycling.

There are real people on #nostr.
I see no high %-age domination by “show people”: actors, conventionally attractive people selling their bodies, marketers, narcissists, or those who want to be the “voice of a movement”.
While the above types are cunning, bold, and convincing, in my experience they are also usually miserable, unwise, unloving & unloved.
High rates of substance abuse too.
And often fun…but over time, boring.
The walled gardens are rife with rotten fruit.
And serpents shilling.
And real people need a hand, an embrace, a smile, and a good conversation.
