Most days I'm incredibly optimistic because of how far we’ve come and because stuff mostly works. Today I'm incredibly frustrated because a lot of stuff I care about is still incredibly broken.

Kopf hoch, wird schon!
Hang in there, kumpel.
It's going to get a lot worse before it gets better. But it will. It will get better.
It is the Rule of Nature ❤️🩹
Building the future with proper incentives requires time and love. We’ll get there soon enough. And most importantly: We’re not quitting 💪🧱🔥
Nothing stops this gang 🚀
This is how I feel towards our wins in Nostr & my generational cohort/peers using mainstream social media seemingly not wanting to take the initiative to make the shift to Nostr. It’s either TikTok this or Instagram that. I left that ship a long time ago & I refuse to put myself to go through the KYC process again.
which is why instead of waiting around for someone to build mainstream alternatives - why not build it ourselves? nostr:nprofile1qqsrly5kuqy2m2dr9rghd4l7d8twhwpd6t28xpfznhsh7xrgumd950gpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68yanfv4mjucm0d5q3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet5gsup0d is my attempt.
Does this solve everything? No. Will this fix the broken system? I’d like to think so, but eventually, in the (hopefully) not-so-far-distant future.
Admittedly, I cannot do it all by myself. I’d be crazy to think I can replace a behemoth of a tech empire on my own. But we can contribute as a community. At least I’d like to think so.
So nostr:nprofile1qqsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycprpmhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcz7v6wd how can we help?
Cool work. That's a follow.
Most days, I'm just chilling because of how chill everything is. Today, I'm chilling because everything is chill.
Like what?
I have this theory that certain aspects of the ecosystem are entering a "reasonable men forced to do unreasonable things" phase. We'll see. I am hopeful. Raising the bar is the only thing that will help to offset the repetition of past mistakes.
First cycle feedback:
If we accept that sometimes we are the ones that are broken, the world would be a better place for sure 🧡
Keep going, never give up. Frustration is part of the process, and also a tool to always keep improving. 🫂
I know how it feels bro 👊
Either start building the things you care about yourself. Or support other builders in building the things you care about. If you can't do either, don't get discouraged.
Great advice.
Not long ago, whenever we tried to do something on Nostr, the expectation was that it won’t work. I think now the expectation is that it will. Progress!
Now we need to make sure it actually works 100% of the time.
I feel the same😟
We would greatly appreciate your feedback on Nostria, it's a new Nost app and service, developed primarily by nostr:nprofile1qqsp0c5gn7aqzqsaqj9p8lgt5yy26vwrsvnzj4rqcg0xn3pl4ra729g4a0ds9
Adding new features all the time, fixing issues, improving and tuning. Every new user that tries it out, gives us valuable feedback for improvements.
It's still a work in progress, we have come far, yet there is more to do. Thanks!
We just need to believe in it, as our internet ancestors did.
