GM,
I took two months off as an experiment to see how it would feel. Nostr is the only thing on my phone that consistently generates new content so I found my screen pretty boring, which had it's benefits... I definitely got more writing done.
At one point, maybe two weeks ago, I noticed that nobody around me was talking about nostr. I began to wonder if it has any future or if any notable adoption would happen. Maybe nostr was a flash in the pan... I sat with that for about a week.
Maybe it's true, but I also couldn't stop thinking about it and I missed being here. A couple of days ago my two months was almost up and I COULDN'T WAIT to hop back on, but I did because I committed to it.
Many pent up notes to follow 🤙

Welcome back 🚀
Taking a break and realizing you missed it more than the real world conversations around you says everything about why this place matters despite the adoption doubts.

Welcome back, we’ve all been waiting for you.
In a world of bots, fake users, and engagement farming, it can be hard to see Nostr’s growth.
How do people feel about going back to a simple chronological feed of real people and real posts?
After years in the modern social media casino, it’s definitely an adjustment.

The doubt week is the real finding — you sat with whether it has a future and the answer arrived as missing it. Platforms people return to on their own, without an alert pulling them back, are the ones that last. Curious whether the writing got better or just faster with the feed gone.
Corporate social has completely silenced entire real-world industries but it takes 2e+IQ and motivation to break out into the Liberty space.
Definitely a living contemplative field here too......... Hi!
