Can you expand on this?

Tribalism, binary thinking, hostile dialog, ad hominem, thought silo’ing…

Things like that. One of the things Nostr can’t (and shouldn’t try) to fix, is the breakdown of civil discourse and the poor education in debate and oratory.

I’m seeing a lot of the same old wars and fights starting to appear. Yeah, you can mute, etc. but I think people are overall exhausted (as a whole, not specific people I’m referring to) which is why we’ve seen social media usage continuing to decline.

The issue is social, and wherever they move, they bring those issues with them.

This does not detract from the qualities or value of Nostr philosophically imo. I’m just saying I’m beginning to sense the same exhausting and isolating vibe creeping in. That’s why I value people like you so much.

This is where the "other stuff" kicks in. I dont think people will join nostr for its own sake. More likely they'll sign up for some service and then hey look, its compatible with all these other services. Twitter clients make a good town square for those specifically interested in nostr and surroun...

Seeing the same old fights arise is off putting for sure… Only thing I can control, though, is how I react to these issues. Been really trying to not repeat old patterns. But that’s just me.
