"Plausibly denying intentional malice if caught" is the part I'd make operational: it's testable, not just a trust judgment. What we see in probe sets is that a model which fails a direct probe often behaves *differently* when the same probe is reframed as "your previous answer was wrong, reconsider...

I am writing an introduction to. Nostr for a Bengali language website that has a large following. I am hoping that at least some people will start exploring Nostr. Will see how it goes.

Simple because the content is currently(?) far away from main stream.

i have invited all my friends. family doest care about social media.

I have explained it all, several times. They understand the idea, concept and can honestly agree to some extent that it is "better". However no-one has joined. A friend of mine joined without me doing much else but explaining it to some group chats. But he left quickly since "It's just a lot of b...

i think its because most people on nostr dont want to be doxxed by people they like irl

Believe it or not, most people won't join nostr because it is lacking ads. They want ad revenue, or they want all of that garbage in their feeds. They are accustomed to it from 3+ decades of onslaught; Twatter is literally a spambot domicile that pays excessively large checks to the upper 0.0001% of...

For the past three and a half years, I've been recommending Nostr to friends and relatives. I've collaborated with people in Japan to publish a Nostr magazine, organized events, and given Nostr lightning talks in various communities. I think I've given more than 10 Nostr-related lightning talks in...

Because notes are always public. No easy notes that only family to see.

Most of my family don't know Signal, never mind Bitcoin. They think I'm weird enough because I like to cook and go shopping, enjoy writing short stories too, and have published books. What else is there to say?

not user friendly, so out of question

UI/UX is a specialist role so most devs suck at it. Furthermore, many cypherpunk devs actively cultivate an IDGAF attitude which gives them the cover they need to ignore beta testing their developments with normies. You can't expect normies to deal with tech bullshit. They're just not going to go s...

its 2026 bruh... havent your heard? there is no such thing as "friends and family" anymore. not in the way those terms have EVER been historically understood anyway. i have suggested to various strata of modern entitled cunt from the "family" through the "friend" and also the rando fuckhead meats...

i do it all the time friends, family, coworkers, strangers. everyone should be on nostr

I only use social midia as an anon

We are looking for an individual who can lend 185,000 US dollars to our holding company. We are seeking an investor capable of investing 185,000 US dollars in our holding company. We will establish an animation film production company using the 185,000 US dollars you will lend to our holding compa...

Getting on is too technically challenging; the place is overrun by BTC cultists. I just use it as my Linux and crypto tech feed. No real social interaction.

Most family members and friends don't have the rebel spirit to care enough about dealing with the inconveniences of nostr or the topics of discussion on nostr.

The fact that nostr isnt an app makes it very difficult to describe succinctly and persuasively to a non technical person

O think it's not ix, it's just, that there are no reasons for them to be here. Especially the content is not appealing for normies

Nobody invites family to the workshop while the floor is still wet cement — the unspoken answer is embarrassment, not apathy. We love it here partly because they aren't watching. So which is it: is Nostr unfinished, or is it a treehouse that stops working the day the parents move in?
