It's amazing how much cooler Twitter is than Facebook. But what's even more stark is how much cooler Nostr is than Twitter. I was skeptical back in December when I first got started. But once I got my Lightning wallet set up, it's been a zap fest ever since and that's what's cool about Nostr. I get real pleasure in rewarding great posts with a zap. And I'm humbled when someone thinks what I have to say is worthy of parting with some sats. Stay golden, Nostr!

#MarchOffTwitter

#MarchOffTwitter Starts tomorrow!

Any of you swear by a paid relay? Does it make a difference. I'm not getting all my notifications, and it's starting to irritate me. Would a good, paid relay fix this?

Are you going to #MarchOffTwitter tomorrow?

My notifications are officially broken. I can see I'm getting more than I'm seeing on https://nostr.band/ , but I can't see them on Iris. When I go on Damus, I see some, but now all. Is this a relay issue? Hopefully I see your reply.

Shadow relax! Relax shadow!

Right now I'm trying to think of a contest I can run where I give the winner 100K sats. Anyone out there have some ideas of what I could do? I could go in many directions. Humor? Serious content? Philanthropy? A combination of such. I could go in many directions.

I've given out about 3 sats per 1 sat I've received via zaps. It actually blows my mind that the ratio is as close as it is because I've been dishing out sats like a drunken sailor over here. To everyone who's zapped me, my sincerest thanks. I'll make sure to redistribute them well. 🤝

I have ten times the followers on Twitter than I do on Nostr almost exactly now. But I've lost that loving feeing for Twitter already.

#Bitcoin is the real great reset.

I wonder how much Lightning's usage has gone up since Nostr. 🤔

Mr. Mojo risin' Nostr is climbin' While Twitter is falling Elon be balling 44 billion sprawling All along the ground Soon won't be found 404 error Nostr is Elon's terror But here we come Earning sats Dishing out zaps Why turn back? Everything Nostr has Twitter lacks

Good Afternoon, Nostr. We are on the bleeding edge of both #Bitcoin and social media. How many of you have gone over? “The Edge... There is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over. The others—the living—are those who pushed their control as far as they felt they could handle it, and then pulled back, or slowed down, or did whatever they had to when it came time to choose between Now and Later. But the edge is still Out there.” —Hunter S. Thompson

RIP my notifications. And RIP my wallet balance after that last contest I ran. It's closed by the way. I thought I could delete the post when I was done with it, but it turns out you can't delete posts on Nostr. I totally lost track of who to pay. But I did payout thousands in sats. Live and learn.

You can't delete post on Nostr, can you? I mean you can try, but it doesn't actually happen. 😨
