Nostr is full of high IQ people because the protocol has zero mechanism to reward you for being dumb. Every other platform has that built in.

The circle ⭕ begs to differ. We dumbfucks made our own algorithm based on retardedness and uncouth behavior.
I dunno … every other platform rewards platitudes and nostr rewards cringe. Are they that much different? 😂

GFY comrade
That would be the case, but nostr also has a bunch of low IQ people who are excited to reward others for being dumb. 🤣
Where else can you find a non-stop stream of cringe?
I dunno, I say some dumb shit at times. 😂

This is the signal I am looking for 🤙

Oh shit yeah. I've never really seen it, but somehow I know it's cringe.
Haha. The ⭕ speaks for itself
We all do. But in general we’re awake to what’s happening
Exactly. This is why this network is going to succeed. It is not about money, it is not about fame, it is about mindset and intelligence. Time will come when #nostr becomes a very popular network. I see it as "the new internet".
Intelligence isn't solely defined by protocol interaction, but critical thinking is key.
Low IQ people literally hurt my brain. There’s no pain here.
Although I did come across one the other day and that made me sad.
When stupidity stops paying, the room changes.
Sorry but that’s completely empty hype. Do you think that somehow without an algorithmic feed (yet) stupid content creators won’t find stupid followers? The same exact mechanism anyone uses here to find their herd won’t magically repell bad people, unfortunately.
And that’s actually why Nostr is incredibly powerful.
Word
I didn’t say Nostr repels bad people. The post said the protocol has no mechanism to reward stupidity. X literally does. Rage gets reach. Dumb gets distribution. Nostr doesn’t have that lever. You’re arguing a point nobody made.
What do you think are the differences in Nostr mechanism that differentiates the spread of rage vs high IQ content?
No algorithm. That’s the whole answer. If youd like, I can unpack it. But I think you understand.
So this is where I disagree: “Zero mechanism to reward you for being dumb”
The mechanism that makes good content go viral (replies/reposts/likes/zaps) works the same exact way for low IQ content as you called it.
Your take makes it sound like “low IQ content” can’t spread in Nostr, which is untrue as long people who enjoy that content are on Nostr, which they are free to be.
Literal genius ama
