When I posted on Twitter that I would be winding down my use of the platform to focus on developing content on #Nostr my tweet was met with the most hostility I've ever seen from my followers. Very rarely have I ever been faced with denouncement from the people who I thought supported me the most.

I am perplexed by how quick some people are to defend a centrally controlled platform. Perhaps my post was perceived as an affront to Elon Musk, which isn't the case. It was merely based on my realization that centralization of social media is the problem. No human is immune from bias, and thus content moderation, when placed in the hands of any individual, is always susceptible to bias and corruptibility. Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Since centralized social media are controlled by centralized governments, content moderation indirectly falls into the hands of politically motivated governments.

The original goal of my tweet was not to criticize Twitter -- I have gained so much knowledge and valuable real-world life experiences through Twitter and the people I met on there. Rather it was to enlighten my followers about the next step in the evolution of social media: Nostr, a decentralized social media protocol that possesses a unique ability to weather the vicissitudes of ever-changing political winds and to persist as a perpetual non-arbiter of truth.

To whomever on here who reads this, and who likewise understands the limitless potential of building a decentralization basis for social media -- alongside the decentralized monetary basis that Bitcoin is creating -- cheers to you for being the facilitators of innovation and evolution!

We need not worry about the resentment of centralized social media.

History will be on our side.
