Nostriches are generous as fuck. When I threw it out there that I wanted to see the Pixies on my birthday, the plebs came through and zapped me a million sats, just because.
Everyone here comes from varying backgrounds with different means. Some are at the beginning of their bitcoin journey. Others are much further along. We left behind toxic social media to build something better together. I like to think that we can all try to respect and support each other without throwing out accusations of dishonesty.
I’ve had friendly and intellectually challenging conversations with people that in other places might have turned into heated arguments ending in insults and blocking someone. I think I’m a pretty good judge of character, and if I’m wrong, my sats are on the line. Here, we put real value behind the content we share and every zap is a statement about both our own character and the integrity of those we interact with.
Let’s not allow an atmosphere of distrust to grow here, or #nostr may end up no better than the angry places we came from, and that would be heartbreaking to see.
