Are you saying this in light of recent events?
I like this. I propose we call everything starting from 2009 as "After Bitcoin (AB)", just like how the BC/AD and CE/BCE systems work.
God I hope not.
How do you make Nostr more useful for yourself? I'm genuinely asking for advice here.
In light of recent events, I really want to start using Nostr as my means for getting news and socializing online. However, I don't want to sift through endless spam from bots and complete randoms.
Is there anything (however big or small) that you've done to make your experience here more positive and intentional? Anything you would recommend in terms of avoiding spam and misinformation? How about advice on networking with like-minded people or evangelizing Nostr to friends/family?
I'm all ~~ears~~ eyes.

Trump's an absolute asshole. There's still more executive orders for him to sign, but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't say anything about the Bitcoin strategic reserve again now that he's pumping his own meme coin.
Wtf there is no second best
If possible, 1M sats is a good minimum number, but it's fine to do less if you want to.
The “Internet is Dead” theory suggests that the internet, once a place of organic and free exchange of information, has now become a tool dominated by big tech corporations. Instead of user-driven, authentic content, the internet today is flooded with manipulative, artificial content designed to fit specific agendas. In its early days, the internet was a platform where people could freely communicate and share knowledge. But today, search engines and social media platforms manipulate what users see, leading to the claim that the original internet has “died.”
This theory highlights the growing need for decentralized technologies. This is where Nostr comes into play. Nostr is a decentralized protocol designed to revive the original spirit of the internet.
Nostr emerges as one of the communication tools of the future, offering an alternative to the constraints imposed after the “death” of the internet. It represents a crucial step towards reclaiming the freedom of information sharing.
I hope this awareness reaches more people.

Love this
Is this a meta package? Kind of like the tidyverse?
Do you think Nostr will one day become more popular than Reddit?

I got 3 people to buy, gifted some sats to 3 others with OpenDimes, and got really close to orange-pilling 1 other person but they only bought one large sum and aren’t stacking at the moment so I wouldn’t say they are fully “orange-pilled”
I don’t know what those are, but I’ll look into them! Thanks!
Great advice! Thanks!
What are some tips you would give to a new Nostr user?
