It's a dilemma. To reach normies, you sort of have to be there. Gonna use it to funnel ppl to Nostr.

I'm speechless. They're copying nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m 's vibe of making Nostr "πŸ€™" and sending "⚑️" and "πŸ«‚".

Except they're calling it "cool" and "πŸ”₯".

It could be a coincidence. But there's no way.

This is all such a deliberate ripoff.

Threads developers were patting themselves on the back for their UX/design. I couldn't resist.

It's exactly how you would imagine it.

Excpe they're harvesting EVERYTHING

FWIW: Coincidentally, yesterday I fired up my Occulus Go (Facebook VR) for the first time in a long while. It literally wouldn't turn on and to do so required: I re-download the Occulus App on my mobile phone AND ALLOW ALL PERMISSIONS of data harvesting. I tried to deny something as simple as my location and it rejected my ability to use the headset.

Wait, what?

I *HAD* to agree to continue to use the headset. I couldn't believe I was being strong armed into this?! 🚩

Then Threads blows up later in the day. 🀯🧐😑

I know it's *easier* to just be complicit to this - and I'm a product of it too - I don't always use Tor cuz it's slower, and I like the convenience of Google Drive etc... but handing over all of our data to these companies - not people - companies, is a net negative for humanity.

They are diametrically opposed to people being free, autonomous and private citizens.

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m knows this more than most.

Bitcoin and Nostr, and more importantly the ETHOS that drives them, is IMPERATIVE to a better future for humanity.

I've never felt more convicted that Web5, self sovereignty and privacy/freedom is of utmost importance to safeguard and practice. βœ…οΈ

But it's going to be increasingly SO, SO hard to opt out and navigate over to these systems, protocols and spaces.

So, so many people are oblivious, indifferent of complicit with big data, big tech and big governemnt. πŸ˜’πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

I'm trying to bear the responsibility of this but I can't help it.

Educating willing students, friends, people, plebs and strangers to these ideals (and consequences) is the most important thing any of us may do in our lifetime.

We need events that cause mass adoption.

Zaps built into Tidal. Remonitize the platform.

This might hit tipping point. My 2 Sats ⚑️

How to expedite? I'm a teacher... how can I help? I already am pushing the limits of financial education for Bitcoin in the public system.

What is happening with #Threads?! 🀯🧐 SO MANY people and companies tripping over themselves to join. And most of the "engagement" is insincere pandering and iNflOoeNceR type questions.

Lowest common denominator.

Harvesting and collecting so much data from you.

You're the product being sold there.

Ugh. Bitcoin is still early if so few people understand this.

Facebook/Meta Zuckerberg:

Stole Facebook from the Winklevoss'

Bought Instagram

Bought Whatsapp

Stole Stories from Snapchat

Stole Reels from Tik Tok

Stole Notes/Fedi from Nostr

Stole Tweets from Twitter

Tried to steal VR (Occulus)to middling results

Tried to steal Bitcoin (Libra) but failed

And stole EVERYONES data and sold it for profit.

Now you can't delete Threads without also deleting your IG. It's all about harvesting your data and selling it.

Enough with this guy and his company. Decentralized the power! #Nostr
