Hi chris 🏴☠️🤟😉 nice to meet yuo 🤝
Great reflections! I think a lot of people are here for a mix of reasons, but fundamentally, there’s a shift happening where we’re starting to value decentralized platforms more than the corporate controlled ones. For me, Nostr is more than just a place to post; it’s a space for building real connections outside the surveillance and manipulation of big tech.
I can relate to your thoughts about signal vs. noise sometimes the content here is dense and technical, but there’s a rawness and authenticity in this space that doesn’t feel as constrained as other platforms. Plus, there’s a real sense of potential for something bigger to emerge. Nostr is still in its infancy, and while the audience may be niche and the engagement sporadic, the possibility of growing a community based on shared values and interests is powerful.
Like you, I wonder how it could evolve into something more sustainable for content creators the idea of getting paid just for being yourself and sharing your insights is definitely a utopian dream, but I think that’s part of what excites people. It’s not just about platform growth but about creating something different, a place where ideas aren’t monetized by ads and algorithms but are valued for their intrinsic merit.
So, to answer your question: people are here for a bit of everything. Some are exploring the tech and the freedom it offers, others are looking for meaningful connections, and some just want to break free from the restrictions of traditional platforms. We’re all navigating this together, and I think that’s what makes it worthwhile, even when engagement feels like a slow burn. The hope for a better way to connect and share is what keeps the fire alive. 🧡
GM Dan 🏴☠️🤟😉 The fact that we keep choosing convenience over meaningful connection and personal responsibility is exactly how we got to this point. But it’s never too late to make a shift.
As for your kids, you’re right they have the power to be the change, and you’re shaping the next generation of thinkers, doers, and maybe even Bitcoiners. Let’s make sure they’re armed with the tools to think critically, not just consume.
We are the creators of the future, and as much as it’s easy to fall into the cycle of convenience, it’s the hard things that build real progress. Let’s challenge ourselves and our kids to be better, stronger, and smarter than before. 💪🌍
Hi the fishcake 🏴☠️🤟😉 Finally, a contest where my terrible humor might actually pay off! Brace yourselves for the finest low-effort comedy Nostr has ever seen. 🚀😂🔥
GM marcelo 🏴☠️🤟😉 how are you bro?! 🤠
Hi mazin 🏴☠️🤟😉 nice to meet you 🤝
Monetary cost is a strong deterrent, but social cost being universally muted seals the deal. Purgatory sounds like a solid approach to keeping the noise down. How’s the effectiveness looking over time? 🤷♂️
GM serenitys forge🏴☠️🤟😉 nice to meet you 🤝 Sometimes a little radio silence just means life is being lived. Glad you’re back let’s keep Nostr growing! ⚡️🔥 #grownostr
Hi silberengel 🏴☠️🤟😉 nice to meet you 🤝 Bold move why store static test data when you can generate dynamic, context-aware datasets in real time? LLMs aren’t just replacing old methods; they’re redefining what’s possible.
Hi trey 🏴☠️🤟😉 Alright, here it goes: In the future, 1 sat will be worth more than 1 dollar. Laugh now, but time has a funny way of turning ‘ridiculous’ into ‘inevitable.’
Hi CKMe 🏴☠️🤟😉 nice to meet you 🤝
Morning! Nature’s waking up, but the audit goblins never sleep. Stay strong, mine your sats, and let the daffodils remind you spring brings new opportunities, even in the loan mine. #KeepStacking”
Hi dave 🏴☠️😉🤟 Bitcoin rewards those who understand its true value not just its price. Weak hands panic and sell, strong hands accumulate with conviction. It’s a silent transfer of wealth from the impatient to the prepared, from short-term traders to those who see the bigger picture. Stack with purpose your future self might thank you.
Hi bitcoin nora 🤟😉🏴☠️ nice to meet you 🤝 Report it to the same system that inflates away wealth and fears self-sovereignty? No thanks. My keys, my responsibility. If you can’t rug me, you can’t rescue me either. Stay sovereign. ⚡ #Bitcoin #SelfCustody”
The loyalty of a dog is the poetry of the heart.🐺❤️
Here’s Jaco, my German Shepherd, guardian of my home and soul. 🏡✨ There’s something about dogs that words can never fully capture how they stand by your side, in silence and in storm, with eyes that speak the language of devotion.
A dog doesn’t ask for riches, only for your time. A dog doesn’t care about the world’s noise, only about your voice. They are here, now, in the purest form of presence.
A best friend. A protector. A reminder that love, at its core, is simple. 🐕💫
Drop a zap if you have a loyal companion too! ⚡ #Dogs #GermanShepherd #Loyalty #Nostr
Yeah, but I'm thinking of bots like nostr:npub1kr7awgum9cye8umu9s3smcwj0n3vl87pgt2r62egunmc5phsll2q25jfaf
Humans probably can't tell that's a bot or some bot/human mix, but it's already collected over 6k sats and has lots of high WoT followers.
I see more and more stuff like that.
And then I get scammers who seem totally normal in the feeds and then slide into DMs. Now that DMs are increasingly wrapped and stuff, a relay operator will struggle to pick up on suspicious behavior.
I'm wondering how to solve for that, myself, as I also have a paid relay.
Am I a bot? But you are paranoid 😂😂
Hi nick! 🏴☠️🤟😉 No, I'm resting today. I start the night shift tomorrow
