this is great news. people don’t want to follow a bunch of people they don’t know and then have to figure out how to remove them. they just go elsewhere. View quoted note →

The Voyage app's onboarding is the only client (I know of) that tried a different approach with hashtags /topic follows, rather than people follows. The recommended follows on nostr are particularly offputting. They are either people from bitcointwitter who barely even post. Or people who are a tight clique here but perhaps offer little to no interest to someone new. But then again you assume everyone is social media-savvy enough to know that user recommendations on platforms are typically not the greatest offerings, anyway.

This has always been the biggest hurdle. I’ve been pitching BTC since it was measured in parts of cents, and it’s all about headache involved in getting your hands on it, especially in the way everyone tells you to do: physical custody. If we can make this a lot easier, that’s a real game changer. Otherwise, the space will continue to financialize and that’s bad for our political/economic ambitions as a movement.
subscribe to a bunch of people and then think about how to unsubscribe from them)) consistency at the highest level🤣

People should come to Nostr not for social media, but for other innovative features like games, zaps, or something unique that isn’t available anywhere else.

I joined Nostr because I wanted to learn more about Bitcoin. It's the most convenient platform for staying updated on the latest developments and general news.
Its about time. Everyone has been so busy meming about how great nostr is, they failed yo notice that its literally the worst onboarding experience on the internet.
I’m new here, not going elsewhere, going to figure this new ecosystem out, guessing understanding how relays work is a big part of it…
I know right? Some of them even have a bot that auto likes your replies. They're farming followers like it's twitter. Fucking influence peddlers.
Yeah I followed a couple of them when I first started. They don't ever even see what you say. That's fine, sometimes you just want to keep up with what people are saying. Automated replies though, and that with meaningless emojis... I've got too much self respect to dick ride people who measure me as a statistic.

indeed when i think of how to make currency realize the currency that is exchanged for currency is just artificial ( fake ) currency when currench is obtained / exchanged
if a new war erupts in the world on Friday at 4:05pm the Middle Eastern markets will only react on Monday what will happen to human bankers and financiers… when market is always active and they can never rest?
@jack closing TBD was a great decision #Nostr is the open-source protocol for global payments ( doesn't work but i have the solution ) i have developed the infrastructure that allows everyone to access and participate in the global economy together we can establish #Bitcoin as the native currency for the Internet and we can move money much faster :) let’s talk joanna founder Bitcoin Bank

You should explain HOW you plan on fixing these issues.
