Relationships are the true basis of community.
And community is the true basis of civilisation.
Platforms turned relationships into proprietary assets:
your followers belong to the platform
your DMs belong to the platform
your social graph belongs to the platform
If the platform dies or bans you, your relationships vanish.
This is not a communication system.
It is a hostage system.
Nostr breaks the hostage model.

Thanks
now we just need to grow the community.
any good ideas on how to do that?
Exactly. Centralized platforms hold our relationships hostage. With Nostr, your connections finally belong to you β open, free, and independent.
Start by DE emphasising zaps. They are important for sure, but they should be incidental, not central.
Maybe, but there needs to be a way to communicate off-grid like.
LoRa and mesh networking.
Maybe nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyehwumn8ghj7mnhvvh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7ctewe4xcetfd3khsvrpdsmk5vnsw96rydr3v4jrz73hvyu8xqpqsg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q8dzj6n new thing tweaked for extremely low bandwidth conditions.

If we enable creators to make more money than they do on platforms, then they will come to nostr, bring their audience and talk about their better experience.

in my experience, sure, anecdotal,
anyone you meet on any platform will cross platforms with you
anyone ive ever met ive given a shit about
and anyone who has ever given a shit about me
pretty damn quickly if on twitter x shares signal or ig or cell for facetime
yea had a couple who crossed to clubhouse at my request
on fb just msgs cell number or ig or email
on ig moves to signal or email
on clubhouse to ig (by design by clubhouse)
etc
e v e r y o n e
if they dont or wont
1. they dont give a flying fuck
2. you are not a person to them. not one worth keeping. they are happy to lose you. it is a video game to them.

not sure youβre right on this. people follow people. if large creators would advertise nostr BECAUSE of zaps (they make money from platforms), it would have a snowball effect.
Iβm not sure we are chatting about the same thing, or I am missing your point. My position is that zaps should not be central. The reason is because any meaningful IRL relationships I have do not involve any monetary exchange as a basis. I maintain that for nostr to grow based on relationships then zaps should be secondary or incidental. My 2 zaps π€·ββοΈπ
in a perfect world i totally agree with you but i believe community growth needs to be incentivised somehow.
in my opinion social media "relationships" are mostly one-sided. as in many people on here know nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyehwumn8ghj7mnhvvh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7ctewe4xcetfd3khsvrpdsmk5vnsw96rydr3v4jrz73hvyu8xqpqsg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q8dzj6n, but jack knows only a handful.
my argument is that for the nostr community to grow, you need many more large accounts to advocate for and use nostr. then people follow them to a new platform (or protocol);
and whether this is good or bad, monetary incentives for creators are important - which could be zaps here.
if the goal is to grow nostr, i am not sure how else to achieve that.
We don't need to convince the masses.
We just need to redesign the foundations!
to what end if not grow and make nostr flourish?
To give people the option for freedom.
They must choose it for themselves.
that is an honourable goal.
i hope people are as idealistic as you need them to be for this to be enough.
They just have to be rational enough to see the fundamentals of the two systems and brave enough to try something new.
Well said
Idk about that one. Maybe i'll think differently when a relationship forms through nostr:nevent1qqs0jgwx5prpzp7kayc8njkjj2xyd67s928ke6gv32ny765t4jacq3cpf9mhxw309a5n2cnrvdknwat6xver2mt0d36x2utfw3arwen3d9u85epkvs6nv6nzvdhngersw56nxuekweshvcm9df6k5mt509jzummwd9hkuw358qmrjtczyre6d8ql2ml7g4xlgk45ghmus9y6rxwgu6pe23nzl2tmj0v6qhchsqcyqqqqq2qfujlnh
