At least nostr can't do worse than twitter at controlling spam. Actually, if the creativity and pace of development in general is any indication, I think we have a good chance of coming up with a highly effective strategy for beating bots.

Didn't sphinx have a good mechanism for dealing with spam? Could that be used here?

Now that I've had time to sleep on the "ZBD" issue. I feel that my reasoning yesterday for continuing to discuss this client wasn't so much about ZBD itself, it was because of me being shocked an appalled at the toxicity being sent towards ZBD users. We often say how the vibe on Nostr is different and how we embody positivity, but that hasn't been shown the last few days towards ZBD users.

It's okay to bash a client and securitize it's implementation of Nostr. This is how the protocol grows. However, it's not cool to do this towards brand new Nostriches. They didn't do anything wrong. They're mostly just people looking to play games and stack some sats. There's nothing wrong with that.

This should be a teaching moment for them. This should be a knowledge exchange. We do this for new Bitcoiners, right? We teach them about self custody. The same can be applied here. Instead of telling someone why you feel Coinbase isn't the solution for them, you can tell them why you feel ZBD isn't the solution for them.

Remember, we're trying to #grownostr here, so you need to explain everything in a cool and calm manner here. You could even write a long and precise guide so that you can just give them the noteID or link to the web site.

If we truly believe that Nostr is for everyone and Nostr is open, then we should do better and explain better. We're not toxic. We left that conversation on Twitter for a reason, because we want to build and change the future for the better.

I don't think social media twitter clones will be the reason people use Nostr in five years time

Every time I travel next to masked ones i image what they might think seeing an entire plane of naked faces

“aaaaany day now, you suckers are all going to get COVID and dieeeeeee!!! Muhahahaha!”

Mask wearing is socially acceptable-ish now so people with nasty zits cover up with them.

Maybe they help with anxiety like sunglasses too.

Oh and I don't think anyone will say they use Nostr anymore than they say they use HTTP, TCP, SMTP etc

We need to make the new user experience on nostr better. Bluesky’s topped a million users but our growth with nostr hasn’t kept up. I’m very pumped on Nostr and think we’ve got a better model for building social apps, but there are problems.

Wallets and keys are hard to understand, browser extensions make sense if you’re coming from the crypto world, but most people don’t get them. We need a login with nostr that works like / with oauth. We need better contact discovery, content warnings, apps to have by default anti-spam filters, etc… Unsexy stuff where we go from it works for me to it works for non-technical users.
