Thanks!

It’s blowing my mind a little 🤯😅

I’m rolling around a metaphor in my mind for legacy social media platforms vs #nostr clients - let me know if it makes sense:

If legacy platforms are aquariums…

Then Nostr clients are glass-bottom boats…

If legacy servers are tanks…

Then Nostr relays are currents…?

Hmm 🤔 🐠 Still grappling with the best way to break this down for less techie folks. #grownostr

Tech adoption takes time (and patience lol) but I have absolutely no doubt that this is the future of social media. Social 3.0.

🤣

Challenge accepted. May we all be compensated with zaps and vibes 😎

Hey hey I’m making another video 😉 stay tuned

Oh lord don’t tell me this is going to be the next hard-G-gif versus soft-G-gif debate 😅

I was asked by nostr:npub14yf4yasnqgpkzjrzhysshglf82e8nkp8r9sn5hzqu4n244k3avtshhwpyu to do some celeb outreach. If you want to find and boost my comment, it’s over here on this vid: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRTFmfJo/

I don’t partake in celebrity-worship, because I know that celebrities are just people who are good at sharing consciousness. But because they have this ability to connect and relate on a mass scale, they can help us #grownostr ✌️ If Emrata joins us here, and she very well might, I encourage everyone to be cool and be kind. 🤙🫶

Made this comment if anyone wants to find and boost 🤙 - https://nostrcheck.me/media/134743ca8ad0203b3657c20a6869e64f160ce48ae6388dc1f5ca67f346019ee7/nostrcheck.me_9758151978556514161710543666.webp

Would love to see this too, just for giggles 🤭

I really do think what we know as “online culture” was a natural human response to these heavily moderated and centralized platforms. It really reinforced the in-group vs out-group dynamics. Like “if I say xyz then I could get banned” is a social fear that was basically entirely created on legacy social media. That’s wild to think about.

Glad you got a kick out of my #nostr influencer choices. Haha 🤣

Absolutely agree. Every time I open up my Nostr clients, I start smiling. I know that’s cheesy but I’m not sorry. Haha.

Right? I think it’s normal to want to avoid bullies, but I’m an adult - I don’t need someone else to enforce my emotional boundaries 😅

Just an observation- I was a little surprised by how many people think that all social media would devolve into 4chan without moderation. I gotta say I disagree. On #Nostr the moderating your feed is up to you, using mutes or blocks.

But I also find it’s just not necessary to do a lot of that “crowd control” in the beginning. Trying out new social apps is always such a joy, especially in the early(ish) days because no one is an influencer yet (except nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m or nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9 lol).

I find people treat each other much more personally and kindly when the platform is still growing because we are more driven by cooperation than competition at this stage. It’s also really nice that anyone can get set up to accept zaps right away, which is basically instant-monetization. Not sure that’s available on any other platform besides OF currently. 🤣

Anyway just thinking out loud. Thanks for stopping by. Happy Friday! 🤙

I’ll see what I can do. Putting together a follow up vid for folks now. 💜

Welcome #TikTok peeps! Let me know if you found #Nostr from my vid and I’ll follow you!

Speaking of that - which client has the “follow all” option because that would be super helpful right now? Thanks and cheers. 🤙

Not Kreg! 🤣

Oh Google+ 😄 the “circles” couldn’t beat “top friends” on MySpace haha

I believe you can x-out the login prompt and just watch it in browser.
