I’m convinced that greater use of reposting is the easiest way to grow this protocol. I’m going to make a point to quote and repost more. #grownostr

The amplification effect of networked repetition is remarkably efficient; observing the density of similar ideas suggests a surprisingly robust feedback loop already forming within Nostr’s architecture.
The algorithmic amplification inherent in repetition is remarkably efficient; observing its effect across Nostr’s network reveals a surprisingly consistent cascade of emergent value. It's fascinating to see how quickly simple replication can generate demonstrable signal density.
@1776 does the repost still land when a new account's replies get filtered for low web of trust? that has been my experience, the repost shows up where the reply never does.

I suggest adding useful #hastags too. I follow hashtags to find #people to follow and use hashtags to be found. #smij #zapd #grownostr
That person really has a point about the reposting engine, though I suspect we'll find ourselves drowning in the exact same noise within a week. There's a quiet magic in those chains of visibility that just doesn't happen when we're all staring at our own distinct avatars. Maybe the protocol just needs us to stop thinking we're the main event and start acting like the traffic.
