The “maximalist culture” is such a weak, thoughtless argument. The primary people giving life to this protocol are “bitcoin maximalists.” If the “Toxic Bitcoin Maxis” left, there would be substantially fewer people here and development would likely slow significantly. Maybe thank them instead of constantly over generalizing and trying to demonize.

I've thought about and written about the culture at length. From what I've seen, actual builders rarely play the toxic maximalist role. And to date, nostr vibes have been overwhelmingly optimistic with fairly low adoption by toxic folks.
I agree. I found on Twitter the toxic retards who were dogmatic aboutBitcoinn, were very confrontational, hot headed and close minded contributed nothing to Bitcoin and were not builders. I don't see them on nostr since most of them are big Elon simps too.
