“We can’t expect the fish to climb the tree” is possibly the best phrase I have ever heard to describe the chasm we are currently crossing.

It’s so entitled.

“Why don’t you use my app that nobody is using?”

Instead of:

“Hey, that’s awesome! Did you know we have another app you can also use to list bitcoin-friendly businesses? Here’s how it works…”

Oh, and while I’m in spicy mode 🌶️ tonight, here’s a free marketing lesson for all the “Heads of Growth” of shitty broken apps that don’t even properly interface with the Nostr protocol.

Don’t do this:

IDK, man. I got personally insulted by the “Head of Growth™” of nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3 (an app with seven users) today because I dared point out that I couldn’t get the Nostr sign-in to work.

Feels like everyone’s getting punchy and restless. We even have nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p dropping straight fucking fire permissionless AI tools on us and still we can’t do more than rookie numbers.

Maybe we really don’t have the sauce.

And by the way, if you do happen to be taking a quick monthly break from kissing Elon Musk’s ass just to catch up on what people who actually care about true decentralization and freedom are talking about, and you’re reading this post wondering, “Hey…is he talking about me?” the answer is probably yes.

Nobody outside our little bubble really gets it, and I honestly don’t know how long it will take until they do. It wasn’t $100K, that’s for sure.

Ask anyone on the street about bitcoin. They’ve either written it off or think it’s the same thing as XRP.

I know a lot of you are feeling depressed about declining growth stats on Nostr, but on the bright side, at least it seems like the full-time Xitter people have stopped showing up to drop their occasional bad takes.

Do you see this one?

nostr:npub17usj0jh86ged3pt34r5j6ejzfar9s2q5dl3l84tq8ymhfj2wz08sxmkf8w Tell us more about Point Roberts, WA. Why isn’t it part of Canada?

If they could hang onto 5 BTC through the 2022 collapse and still be stacking today, they’re going to be the envy of the country club.

Never heard of it before, but now I know where that is.

No, just caffeine straight into my veins, please!

Maybe I should just quit everything, move out to the country, and open a little bed & breakfast.

Make sure you’re running the latest versions and also it probably wouldn’t hurt to do a relay check. Most of the time when things seem out of sorts it’s due to relays.
