Just deleted all my other social media accounts, I’ll be sticking with Nostr only because I believe in the vision. Only downside is I don’t know a single person in real life who uses it yet. #grownostr

This is the way. #NostrOnly and work on growing your community.
It's totally worth, you'll see the benefits in very short time and very likely never go back. Pura Vida sir! 🫂💜

Welcome to the #Love #Evolution
Welcome 🤗 #introductions
"don’t know a single person in real life who uses it" ✅
lets keep it that way lol
Only people I know are the ones that told me and the ones I’ve told!
This IS real life Nick! We're just early to realise it 😎 😝
BE LIKE @Nick !

Hopefully that happens with time! Thanks for the commitment to Nostr!
Welcome to #nostr
I showed my friend the 36 cents I got from zaps last week then sent it to my wallet via ecash and then paid for coffee
his jaw-dropped
Gave you a follow😊
LFG
NOSTR ONLY

I keep my irl ones for family and friends to see im still alive (and married lol) but i deleted the actual apps themselves and don’t use them. Nostr only now. Better vibes.
Me neither. Let's keep it that way, shall we?
Hey, Nick,
nostr is real life though, and now you know me!
welcome at nostr!
you want' regret your move.
I just use telegram now.. but am leaving
Have you checked out stacker.news ?
I close to making this move myself
I haven’t, what is it?
That's how Nostr started for most of us!
you know what else should be deleted? Cocomelon
Even if you don't delete them eventually they will ban you. Truth social recently banned me because I had made some posts saying that truth social won't survive because Nostr is decentralized.
They got angry at that and banned me accused me of using my profile to advertise. 🤣

Insane 😂
Welcome to nostr!
Keep looking and be the change.
Go to an event.
🤙
this is the way
Next, add lightning address so we can zap you
congrats welcome in family , will be not dissapointment
Saw your nostr post on reddit. Stopped to say hi.
Followed.
-My advice is keep your reply:note ratio like 10:1 until you have a few hundred followers.
🧡👊🏻🍻
That will change… I used Nostr for a long time and didn’t know anybody IRL on here…
But after a couple meetups in my local area… now I know a few plebs💜
sounds like you’re going to be a leader in your community
Just want to make a difference any way that I can
Ummm…
I’m real.
(Just sayin’)
This is the way, I wasn't a Twitter/X kind of person; Deleted all my social media years ago recognizing the BS that was the algos on the "Home Feed".
Hoping there is something like an "Instagram" solution on Nostr in the future. Loved me some Instagram posts from friends.
Dude literally same, at this point I'm so far removed from everyone else I'm not sure who I am anymore. Hopefully this is a place I can find myself #grownostr
I’m right with you. Gone Nostr only but don’t know a single other nostrice irl
Which Nostr clients do you use?
🤙🏻🤙🏻
You're off to a great start!! Try at least a couple of clients to get the most from Nostr!!
Thank you!
Currently using Primal
Agreed!
I’m still waiting to run into someone randomly, away from all bitcoin events, using nostr
Truth Social? More like Truth-Stretching Social. Trump inventing a new platform to spread lies? That's like trying to build a better mousetrap out of a used tissue box. Waste of time and materials.
All you have to do is bring someone here from real life to change that… or go to a conference and meet a bunch of Nostriches 😆
well done
Is that a downside
Join the club :-)
When your plan was to spread the word but you're weak and give into the algos.... you have to leave other socials. 🤣

So true! I know one person but that’s because I evangelised them… even then some don’t stick around, some do
Welcome to the club, I don't know any of these lunatics, but I love em'!
You can get to know me in real life, then you know someone 🧡
Yes!
I agree and am on the same boat. However, I'm learning so much just being here and the vibes are immaculate. #grownostr

It's kinf like a reddit or hacker news. But with zaps. People on there are quite generous to those who provide value. And there are downzaps. So the incentives are solid. I think it's great. It's still small. They are working toward being completely non custodial as well but you can always hook it up to your lightning setup if you choose. Check out out. You can sign in with email, lightning or nostr.

It's like Hacker News but we pay you Bitcoin.
STAY HUMBLE AND STACK ZAPS
We’re around, I didn’t know anyone in person until Nostr Valley.
Welcome to #Nostr 🤙🏼
The ride is a little bumpy here and there, but worth it.
Nostriches are my friends.
Even the ones I argue with
If IRL people join, probably best not to let them know your real npub
Nostr is the shit. Love the lack of algos. It will grow over time. Plus you have all of us!
Truth!
Many zaps have been stacked in this one note lol, I will most certainly remain humble.
Welcome! Curious, what were your main reasons for this decision?
i did the same! its tough though i dont have anyone irl that uses nostr either 🙁
Main reasons are:
1. My wife and I have a baby on the way and I don’t want social media to be a big distraction and detract from my family life, so only having Nostr will be helpful.
2. I believe in the Nostr vision of decentralized social media. I don’t want anyone telling me what I’m allowed to say. I figured the best way to promote it is simply to use it and get off the other platforms.
3. I realized that I only care about a handful of people on those platforms. Most of my time scrolling was a huge waste of time, looking at things that I don’t even care about. Those that I truly care about I will text or call them, I don’t need to be on social media to keep in touch with them.
Hopefully that changes in the future.
hoping for the 'get off zero' for people i know irl in that aspect 😅
I had no idea getting banned from Truth Social was possible. I thought they were all about free speech.
Cheers 🥂
I hope to see people discuss “unclean” topics more.
A vast portion of Nostr only discusses what one could say without recourse on any other platform… just to a much smaller audience.
Most are so good at obeying, even though no one is telling them what to say here they still live within “approved” lines.
There’s an app for that 😉
I have met one in person so far😂
Networking on #Nostr is so crazy.
You can literally change your entire life by meeting the “right” people.
Impressive exposure right out of the gate ser
Fortunately a lot of people reposted this! Very grateful
reallife people mostly talk about nothing anyways. 😘
