Good Morning Nostr
2 days before Nyepi Day 🌌
It’s raining and peaceful.
Today join preparations for burning Ogoh-ogoh add to the sacred atmosphere.
👹Ogoh-ogoh is a large statue representing ‘Bhuta Kala’, a Hindu figure symbolising cosmic and temporal forces. This tradition marks the eve of Nyepi, Bali’s Day of Silence.
The burning of the Ogoh-ogoh holds deep symbolic meaning for Balinese
⚜️Cleansing Negative Energy – The terrifying effigy is paraded through the village, representing evil and negativity to be purged.
⚜️Destroying Bad Traits – Its burning signifies the removal of human vices and malevolent forces, allowing Hindus to welcome Nyepi with pure hearts.
⚜️Purification – The ritual cleanses both the environment and the self, creating sacred stillness before a day of fasting and reflection.
⚜️Renewal – By releasing negativity, people embrace the new year with fresh positivity.
⚜️Balance – The Ogoh-ogoh reflects the harmony between good and evil, divine and demonic, unity and conflict.

So, the answer is: Yes, engagement rates have dropped on average and compared to before. You lazy bums.
How did I measure that? I didn’t count and analyze the replies, but the fact that I stirred up a hornet’s nest means there’s some truth to my claim. And the positive replies from people with over 10K followers don’t count. They just drop a quick "GM" and immediately start trending. Which in turn encourages others—people, bots, and spammers—to reply even more, amplifying the effect.
A few people completely failed to grasp the question, thinking I was claiming that user numbers in general had dropped. Some even concluded that this was yet another "Nostr is dead" debate. They should take their reading comprehension over to TikTok or Instagram and go like some pretty women’s photos.
Thanks for joining in, everyone! 😀 nostr:nevent1qgs02f70juxwyc88gfsjzjlkzt50wkjemvvrtmt7gpfnymplvh3r9msqypeq848cqqnnu2q7f9k0mgh9nfvj3felk6y0qer009shr336d2q5jtskfx4
Next I’ll use “sucks” and “dead” to call for wake up
I hope you are eating the donuts
