Can we stop the circle jerk that nostr will succeed because of freedom, FOSS or decentralization? Most people don’t give a flying fuck about freedom. That’s why nostr will likely fail unless it actually succeeds as the protocol because somebody figured out how to do something truly needed and different on it. Probably a centralized entity.

I don’t get that at all. When you grow up everyone’s either trying to tell you what to dream or sell you a dream. Even here.

The clue has always been in the name.

Fuck these bumper sticker wisdom bits, really. So all the striving, eating and shitting and struggling and then slowly dying is the point?

You know that feeling when you regret making the wrong turn because you’re now stuck in a horrible traffic jam and there’s no way out or back?

It’s the future moment of relays on nostr.

How do you know you’re here for long term?

When you’re right, you’re f’ing right.

Numeric, be more efficient and less prone to misspells.

Grammar is important. It’s actually what’s broken in nostr right now.

I don’t use it because I don’t get the value proposition of a “reliable” relay.

Why not do you use it??

Phrase it right and I’ll answer.

We all talk about bitcoin and low time preference. But most of money is in the hands of people with little time left. By the time this wealth trickles down to us, our own time preference will be significantly higher.

It will take a more catastrophic shift in wealth than many have the stomach for in order for bitcoin to happen faster.
