It's disruptive for the group that most benefits from it (people that want to speak their mind without censorship). That's awesome of course but normies usually just care about convenience, pop culture and want heavy moderation. They won't all of the sudden embrace a platform where everyone can say anything after being protected by moderation from big tech. Especially if nostr will be smeared by MSM.
Normies usually go for convencience, heavy moderation and where pop culture leads them. Nostrs big selling point is freedom of speech, privacy and decentralization. Normies mostly don't care about that. Especially lefties want censorship. Mainstream media also shunnes platforms with no moderation. Just because we love nostr and see the potential doesn't mean everyone else will.
You can of course say fuck em we don't want those people here anyway. But then you have to accept that nostr won't overtake the big centralized social media sites.
The fact that a libertarian candidate even gets that much in ANY poll is already noteworthy.
Unpopular opinion: Nostr's social media takeover is far from certain. The chances that it will only develop into a niche platform are greater than it taking over all of social media like some influencers are claiming (because it's the cool thing to say?) #[1]
Okay, but does every post get hidden that was flagged?
At some point most would just turn that off because there will always be some snowflake flagging a bunch of stuff.
Wow...
Milei, the libertarian ancap presidential candidate in Argentina is leading the polls by a huge margin.
Yeah. They love mastadon because it can be heavily moderated and they set the rules. Great for sensitive lefties. Not sure that level of moderation is even possible with nostr? Maybe possible through leftie relays?
is that on damus? how does that work?
every post that gets flagged by someone gets hidden at first?
gotta say, finding out I don't follow a few people anymore all of the sudden and having to go through my list again is kinda annoying. Not sure why that's happening.
hey alby wen NIP-57 support?
or do you just mean the lightning symbol for tipping
really? so on snort you can see how many sats a post got? Never seen that 🤔
right now that's just on damus right?
Don't have iOS but looking forward to that being in every client.
