Maybe you're mad because you agree with me?

I mean think about it, if I said something wildly incorrect, you'd have just lolled and said, "no, man, this is how nostr actually works, and this is what makes the people you muted so great, and this is the real reason numbers are trending down. You're wrong man!"

Instead, I got retaliation, insecurity, insults, fallacies, guessing, goalpost-moving, equivocation and personal attacks.

I read the threads, and that's what it looks like to me, and I'm not the only one seeing it that way.

It's okay if you wanna call me aggravating, but, guys, c'mon you're acting like this is high school or something.

The problem many are facing isn't Pubky itself, but the way the launch is being structured and presented.

The objective format is only part of it; the display and communication filters who enters, and it's filtering out a large portion of Nostr users...

That’s because a large portion of nostr users are bots

It is a beta, and i didnt come here to invite people as part of any launch.

Nostr people only started (lazily) looking at Pubky because they didnt like what I said about nostr and they wanted to find ways to make it look bad too.

But they failed, so they are trying to make me look bad instead.

It is all very transparent.

Asshole doesn’t like being told he’s an asshole. Imagine that.

Textbook narcissist, playing the victim.

Why not just list out three of his core points (as in the points he's expanded upon at length and clearly takes seriously) and refute them one by one? Or else mute him?

He doesn’t deserve to be taken seriously at this point.

Why not? He makes some interesting and arguments and he clearly knows the technical underpinnings of Nostr. Seems like a fun debate.

He has nothing to contribute, which is why i muted him, which is probably why he is mad.

You’ve never dealt with a narcissist I take it? He’s not in it for a good faith discussion or debate. He’s here for attention. He’s loving every second of the abuse. He gets off on it. The only attention he will get from me is mockery and then ignoring him once I’m bored enough.

If both sides were making reasonable and well-researched arguments then I don't know how you'd tell the difference between a good faith debate and a bad faith debate?

Maybe you want to bite on one of these?

"Nostr has no meaningful comparison to Bitcoin, which entirely different as a system."

"Relays are just servers. They are no more "decentralized" than traditional web servers, which you can also run yourself."

"Relays fall into the same legal and moderation requirements as any cloud server or social media website. If caught failing to comply, then legal trouble."

Whoa stop spreading narcissism bro

Stay humble?

sigh. this is one of those, if you don't understand it, I don't have time to explain it to you moments.

carry on, I guess. hope you figure it out.

Give it your best shot.

I wish I could see the post you are replying to, but I guess my client sucks 😂

It is not a reply, but your client probably does suck haha!

I see improvements though 🤓

they got this way from bitcoining

bitcoin is a pump scheme that has seen astronomical success so these people thought they could pump NOSTR the same way by simply repeating retarded nonsense

but they neglected one key difference. retards love money. freedom of speech ? not so much. retards have nothing to say. they don't care.

Who else sees it that way? Can you share?

Read the threads yourself?

What threads I’m supposed to read? Can’t you just namedrop some of the people that agree with you?

I'd rather you assume no one agrees with me.

Then, maybe, you can think for yourself.

Can you refute my criticisms?

Can you defend them?

If you can't do both of those things, you don't know wtf you are talking about, right?

fuck everyone else, use your brain!

Can’t you just namedrop some of the people who agree with you? I’m not saying it to tease you. It would really help me estimate the amount of mental effort i should put in understanding your claims.

Good luck avoiding mental effort.

Hmm it’s not about avoiding mental effort, it’s about trying to prioritize where to focus it
