It’s really hard. FOSS has a weird stigma attached to it. And people don’t move platforms unless their friends all move - and it had to be a significant number or they just go back. See mastodon, see the crypto social network forget name

I remember you doing those billboards and trying your damndest to get anyone here to care. I think at that time, we had a lot of idealists thinking nostr will win because its superior tech so we dont need marketing. Clearly that was the wrong attitude/approach. Not only do we need everyone rowing... we need to be doing it coordinated and in unison, not randomly each on our own.

Large-scale social change, when you're fighting network effects, is a hard thing... But it can work. I see the same thing with the shift from suburban living to urbanism over the past ~20 years or so. Back in the 90's, urban downtowns were places you (maybe) visited in the Daylight hours to work, then quickly fled back to the suburbs at 5 pm. It's taken generational change, and there are still ongoing fights with NIMBYism, but millennials and younger generations have started to see the benefits of dense urban living. Likewise, we're at a point in history where the internet has basically been "colonized" by The Platforms. Hopefully we don't need a "generational" timescale to change things, but it's going to be a gradual process....

Do you really want to know how a wave of teens and privacy aware people after social media block looks like? Nostr may not be able to hold for one hour under those conditions. A shitstorm of clursterfuck proportions doesn't even get close to a proper description. But it will happen sooner or later on Nostr too. I just hope it will have enough relays to not collapse in the first hour

Most if not all public relays are hosted on rented servers. Scaling will not be a problem. They might lower write limits to limit cost, but kind 1 and 0 events will be unaffected since they take up virtually no space. The first to fall will be the free media hosts like nostr.build but this will honestly be good imo because it will result in a relative increase in attention to all the people who pay for hosting or host themselves. It will mean that the million new kids won't completely take over the space, but they will be subject to the influence of the based MFs here that host their own shit.

1. Add a referral sistem to aps with SATs as earnings 2. Add default relays to use with the app, until they learn how it's working 3. Remove the fucking WOT, because people are already "banned" when they join, not even Twitter, or Facebook are banning or shadow banning you when you register. These are just a few of what you can do first! 🤘

every day I feel that this is needed. I see that many create clients that offer all kinds of options, but I don't see anyone talking about clients anywhere, in fact I still see that they talk more about bitcoin than about the advantages that this place offers compared to traditional pages. many times I don't know why they don't talk about how NOSTR can solve the problems that many are experiencing with the age verification laws that are being imposed on them and the persecutions that they are experiencing just for one publication. and since the nature of this protocol allows them to talk and be able to publish things without having to hand over a lot of personal data or even offers them absolute control of what they publish due to the flexibility of the protocol of being able to recover files from any site without having to depend from a single central server.

Already post 3 years travel content but you can see like last week events like Las Vegas get more attention even here than high signal events like @Bitcoin FilmFest 😉 what is all creators. People stay people even when they got Bitcoin :) Be the change like you now do with you app wisp. It’s all about less talk, more POW :)

I may hope we don't see it because they're not posting it on nostr. But nah they're probably elsewhere because they actually care about making money

Right here, I talked to someone today about Nostr and am helping him get his account set up. Strike up a conversation, mention Nostr, show them how it works, that’s all it takes folks.

Until you don't get enough WOT points, you are not being seen by those who are using WOT relays, they are filtering people which they don't trust. Something similar to recaptcha 😊, you have to prove that you are human, and you need to be approved, followed, liked, reposted by some big accounts, otherwise you may not be seen, and wait for months to get some engagement. Something like that

I don't know, I wasn't interested in this because I thought it's a shit from the beginning, after I've seen it for the first time I was thinking that it's a stupid thing to do if you want to bring more people here. As I said, not even Twitter or Facebook has done this in the early days, and they are not doing it now. This is my conclusion: when you join nostr you are shadow banned, simple as that. You are ok, don't be afraid about this. The answer is: the relays owners, and you as a person if you choose to use a WOT relay or not.
