I deactivated my X account yesterday (partially) because I needed a mental health break

But the main reason, was because bull market twitter is so fucking gay

I spent 10 minutes scrolling yesterday. I kid you not, every single post was either a bunch posers gooning out in all-caps over the price going up 4%, or it was a circlejerk of scammers spamming "Paper Bitcoin Summer" over and over and over

There's no signal over there anymore. Yesterday was the moment I realized X was no longer bringing me any value to my life, so I just deleted it

Maybe I will come back to X in the bear, when all of these carnival barkers get wiped out. But until then, nostr:nprofile1qywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytfsxyhxymmvwshx7cnnv4e8vetj9uq3uamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwp6kytnhv4kxcmmjv3jhytnwv46z7qpqglqqq2czzjlzc4rqq5lsccllk3xq3q00l76yu3j28hednk7yvdmqmrwsj0 is officially on a hiatus.

Take care of your mental health. However, just a couple of sats of advice: Being relentlessly negative (even when you are correct) takes a big toll. I think you need to balance calling out shenanigans and also spreading some positivity.

Welcome

Cheers! 🥂

sad not to see your posts daily, I was and am a fan.

I hope you return and in the meantime, I do hope your mental health improves. Stay strong man!

Now, can I please zap you?

Nostr is better, welcome

Set up wallet

Hell yea!

So will you be regularly posting here as well? I’ve been loving your takes

Yup, I rarely go on there anymore.

You were pretty much the I only reason I would look at X from time to time.

Periodical Pledditor check up. 🤣

Fair but also that’s why people like you are good to have there

Welcome

Sup nerd. Welcome.

Setup zaps!

Welcome to the future

Yes!!!

Bitcoin is not the signal either. It’s what you do with it.

That’s cool (partially). Just full send it though brother. You’re in good company here 🫡

Negative Nancy can't stand people having fun playing with their bitcoins 🙃

Please set it up so we can zap you

Nice, welcome!

Have you considered getting a NIP-05, from for example nostrplebs.com to make it easier for people to find you?

Love reading you!

this sounds terrible..

I’ve heard so much about you

Can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen

Nah I’m kidding, welcome aboard

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE GOON OUT IN ALL CAPS

Welcome welcome!

Welcome man. If your experience is anything like mine you'll gradually notice a shift in your baseline mental state.

Away from rage bate and current-thing-ism towards something more genuine and positive.

I can’t zap you can you attach a wallet

Youre going to see a lot of price talk here too.

Be mindful who you follow.

Know that you can mute.

Congrats 🎉

I've not regretted doing the same last year

That's nice now please set up some zaps so I can zap you 😄

welcome back to the free internet

It fucking sucks..I'm still on it but mainly for political and geo events. I don't think I see any signal about Bitcoin anymore. It's been like this for 2 years. All the cool people moved to Nostr

His name was Pledditor

#nostronly

Welcome! Enjoyed your twitter posts. Obvious risks ignored by most.

Your Algo determines what you see by what you engage in so you probably engaged with Crypto bots

Put your lightning address so we can zapp you!

You gotta set up a wallet so we can zap ⚡️

Sometimes Bitcoin Twitter is hard to watch. We see Bitcoin as something principled and pure, then people show up and cheapen it.

Delete X permanently or stop virtue signalling for engagement on nostr, sounds orchestrated and conceited.

nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpr9mhxue69uhhxetwv35hgtnwdaekvmrpwfjjucm0d5q3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet5mm8xr7 walked the talk like a fucking boss in this regard.

Don’t bitch on us man, once you close the door it stays closed

Couldn’t zap since you don’t have a wallet set up.

Welcome back to Nostr, though.

nostr:nprofile1qqsy0sqq9vppf03v23sq20cvv0lmgnqgs8hlldzwge9rmukem0zxxaspr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vp39e3x7mr59ehkyum9wfmx2u30qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wshsakfrdq fix your zaps

great to have you here. I love your takes 🧡

Welcome, huge fan.. Please bring your ass kicking to Nostr! 🤙🫂

Good to have you here, even if I disagree with your takes sometimes

Happy to see you here

I did the same. 👍

Hey pledditor

I think Twitter may have been a better place for you though. Not a lot of market for rage bait on Nostr.

Your following the wrong people

oh cmon, xitter might be gay but nostr is gayest echo chamber... come back and mute/block ppl who post about price

enjoy stupid nostr influencooors and non-stop retarded ecash and nostr circle jerk 🤦‍♂️

🙌🙌

Welcome to Nostr, whoever you really are. All are welcome here.

I completely understand the frustration. I try hard to fight the BS out there.

You were the signal.

Twitter has always been a good place to fight against evil or retarded shitcoiners and nocoiners. Problem is that before it always seemed like the majority of bitcoiners were on the same page. Now the immorality is within.

Feels like a losing fight for me.

The exception is the Knots v Core situation. With that, the only audience is node runners.

I liked what you were doing, but I knew it was going to get too much. I think I said so in a comment.

Yes, it's a shitshow

Nice to see you here buddy, make sure to set up a lightning wallet to receive zaps.

X is now all about engagement farming at this point. The rewards push for that type of behavior.

You did the right thing. A move all of us should do. X is cringe.

I appreciate this. We need more good Bitcoiners to make a hard cut to NOSTR like this

Account is back on X.

Almost made it to 3 days before relapse. 🤣

nostr:nevent1qqs2lwtrrmgdhfh9nc6z9ydye9x4zxtuvnskespk8q9ap9fe2hzuzdqfkzadk

Set up your wallet

How long until this little cycle starts again?

Well played…. So true. Makes me miss the bear market twitter. I’m close to leaving ….

Yo, have you tried being a little less negative? Being negative 100% of the time might have an impact on your mental health
