I'm not going to do that either, but Daniel, you and I are not the same as new users being onboarded now. We're an entirely different user. We used Nostr when it was essentially unusable, but we pushed forward because we saw the potential. Just like we have custodian for Bitcoin, we'll have custodians for social too.
I would never input my nsec into nostr:npub1earna05hx6ax38r33h3atmecjzdu547m8suw87w70aw6mlyga4hsqcja5j because I don’t know what they would do with it. They already said they would change my NIP-05 ID, and that was a nonstarter. I could only assume it would overwrite my relays as well. So I created a new account there to try it out. I like some aspects of the design and UX, but this could never replace any other client for me. Being a walled garden is one thing, but the geofencing and KYC makes it nearly impossible for me to use.

If today’s examples of ZBD users are a preview of the quality we should expect, I’m not sure this is the potential we’ve been looking for.
That sounds kind of elitist. Isn't Nostr for everyone?
It is, but I have to say some of the users coming through that door are more annoying than the airdrop bots, so I’m going to proactively mute almost anyone with a ZBD address that I see.
It’s like they’re all reading off the same fucked up script lol
Eh. There's been some that think that they're all essentially dummy or sock puppet accounts set to look like they have a lot of users for VC reasons. But there's no evidence.
There’s a wide variety of us nostr:nprofile1qqsv73e7h6tndwngn3ccmc74auufpx722ldncw8rl8087hddljyw6mcpzdmhxw309ucnydewxqhrqt338gmnwdehv07p8s users, like any community. I can’t help with code, but I can help with content. My value isn’t determined by my Nostr client. #nostrlife
