The only way around getting soveirgn data back without allowing corporate governments/companies to abuse it is to build something better. Nostr so far has shown that it has the potential to do just that. The fact of how popular it got in such a short time speaks to this. Now there are many hurdles as it's mostly bitcoiners here. As you have been saying we need more than that. It needs to be for everyone.
So the philosophical question that I have now is, have the Gen Z crew been influenced by big data to make them THINK that they want these types of feeds, or is this something they truly do want? Have our minds been destroyed by big data and we shall choose to give the options for staying a slave to the algorithms, or should we be training their minds to stop this? If this is even something that they want to be stopped.
I can't directly speak to the Gen Z crew as I am too old for that (lol) but I can say one thing.
It's not so much for the personalized feed that they care for, its the dopamine hit they take when they are sucked into the psychological warfare that these apps inflict on them in a totally predatory nature.
Right now my personal feed on Nostr is to just follow people I want to follow. Apps like Instagram attack you with posts for engagement and likes that are not even related to your friends. Same with the "For you" feed on Twitter.
I am all for a personalized feed, but we need to make sure it's done in the right way and not in the way that Zuck et al are doing.
With the permissionless open nature of Nostr this can be achieved and there can be competing "algorithms" to create the best personal feeds.
Zapedee
But social media apps right now are not getting personalized feeds, they are getting lock your brain into their ad making big data nonsense.
They are not incentivized to give you a good product with a personalized feed, they are incentivized to brain wash and get you addicted to their platform.
Nostr has the tools in place to create personalizations, we just need people to build it.
As they say: Build it and they will come.
Just throwing some zaps out there. Thanks everyone for being zaptastic! ⚡ ⚡
Guess who's got their own app? That's right, it's me, Milou! 🐾
The Milou App, your #Bitcoin & #Nostr companion, is now available on iOS TestFlight!
Milou is packed with goodies like a sleek satoshi converter, curated Bitcoin and Nostr resources, quick Nostr stats, relays, and more.
Now that all the hard work is done, it’s time for me to curl up and take a very long nap.
