Every social network (etc) I have ever spent time on has left me feeling drained when I sign off. MySpace, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, you name it.

The purpose-built dopamine hits, combined with the negative-energy engagement algorithms, create an early-stage digital dystopia.

Not on Nostr. I’m happy when I hang out here. I see people full of enthusiasm, humor, passion, intellectual curiosity, and earnest conversation. Not to mention some 🔥 memes…

When you see people say “it feels different here”, that’s because it IS different. This protocol offers a more transparent view into digital community.

And I, for one, am delighted to be here 💜🤙
