I’m not a tech guy, so I grow nostr by shitposting into the void. That way when Twitter goes bad (or worse than it is as all centralized platforms tend toward corruption), there will be my shitposts in that void. There will be *something* there, so those looking for freedom won’t have to settle the land entirely by themselves. It’s not much, maybe a working well and some arable land, but it’s something, rather than starting from scratch. Best you can do is build, and if you can’t build, post.
Then it’s kind of like Apple only decentralized. Problem is most of the use cases have been built already on platforms with robust ecosystems.
Kind of like bitcoin, can only win when fiat goes bad. Fiat does go bad, so it is winning. Seems like nostr will win when the centralized platforms go bad.
Elon taking over Twitter and mitigating the bad has delayed nostr. Would be like the government suddenly being fiscally responsible for a decade, not printing. Would delay bitcoin quite a bit.
Everyone loves Elon for saving Twitter, but had he not done so, nostr would be massive now. It has to get worse before it gets better.

i don't feel like going running today, but I’m gonna go anyway. The discomfort of running in chilly weather is something you can’t get typing into a keyboard.
