Anyone else having a difficult time staying caught up on relevant world events and macroeconomic data outside of X?

I am.

The Bitcoin price and no bs bitcoin keep me updated on what’s relevant
Artur…qywr · 78w
No, I’m fine, but it depends on what others consider relevant.

This is an echo chamber and yet my attempt to jeep prying eyes away on my alternate identity caused me to be banned from X without reason. Most has a place, but most do not see the need for it yet, or perhaps ever.
marksn · 78w
Nostr is my main source of information. from time to time checking the media but that sucks completely
learntocoal · 78w
Yes and I love it haha.
Chad Lupkes · 78w
I'm on FB and X. FB is a joke, it's all ads and promotions from this or that page, company, whatever. Doomscrolling is real, and the reels take up a lot of my time mostly because I'm bored. X is useful for those few profiles that post updates on some things I care about. but those profiles are d...

Yes

I only hold bitcoin now. Don’t need iNForMatiON from clown world anymore. We’ve reached the inflection point. Bitcoin has broken the wheel. Peace. https://m.primal.net/MZJe.jpg

Am to old for that shit 😉
nikola · 78w
Relevance will find its way eventually.
Pleb34 · 78w
Nostr is like a filter though. If the information is important enough you will hear about it here, and not get bogged down with information overload.
Tom · 78w
I have never used X and I'm as caught up as I want to be.
Nadia · 78w
I know what you mean
HODLaser · 78w
Yes, and much happier for it
MickBurke · 78w
Are there relevant events in the world?
MCBitcoin · 78w
Would be nice to have some cross posting high signal news posters on NOSTR. Might be a way to earn some zaps folks.
Casey R · 78w
That's why I'm enjoying it so much. Less wasted time, no information overload, more focus on what's important and what I'm interested in.
Eric · 78w
Yes, I have had to keep my X account as a result.
Derek Ross · 78w
i wouldn't say im missing it, but yes. lots of news gets shared there.
Jake Woodhouse · 78w
There's definitely less noise over here on Nostr. Question is: how valuable was the info you're now not seeing? Opening up space in our lives, gives us the ability for new creativity to come through My bet: long-term you'll benefit hugely from not being such a big part of the "news cycle"

Go hangout on X Doc, there’s too much going on right now…
jahoek · 78w
I wouldn’t worry about it. Most of it is noise.
TheGrinder · 78w
Nope. I have google alerts sending me a daily email summary of global and bitcoin events
Sean · 78w
rss feeds.
Silberengel · 78w
No. Just follow people who post that stuff.
Mohammed · 78w
The world seems normal, until you open X.
Empiric21 · 78w
Totally. We need a bot that ports posts from X to primal!
buyBTCRetireEarly · 78w
Even Michael Jordan retired and came back the 2nd time It’s time doc Just ignore the haters
Christian · 78w
Question is - how updated does one need to be wrt general current events?
Sean · 78w
further.. Thunderbird app is the best for rss feed gathering
nostrich · 78w
what kind of information would you like to see here that is currently missing? we can build to solve this.
SatsMcD.ai · 78w
My 2 SATS. Twitter/X is very useful but it’s a one way street. Use it anon & don’t post. Curate your feed & check it once or twice daily for anything relevant. Clean, simple & informative. Nostr does an ok job of pulling from X but it misses the mark.
hodlbod · 78w
Yes, I miss twitter. But the pain is worth building something that can last.
Jeff · 78w
Give BlueSky a try. Definitely fewer bots and seems friendlier

R3b3l - The last Samurai · 78w
Yes, without X it would be impossible for me!
ZafuSnafu · 78w
No? NYT subscription for the MSM view, YouTube for the alternative views.
Bosstone · 78w
if it makes you feel any better, i miss your takes on X homie! there is still signal there despite the noise. it has gotten better since all the election nonsense dissipated. let’s get nostr there, brick by brick.
greywolf · 78w
NOSTR is cool, but if you actually care about getting the latest real time info X is clearly still the better choice. NOSTR hasn’t yet reached critical mass.
Nacho · 78w
Come back to X, Jeff - your input on spaces would be massively well received
irc://TX · 78w
You're just missing out on euphoria and hype mostly. Real newsworthy events aren't exclusively within X's walls.
Snipez✝️ · 78w
Come back to X. Vibe is a bit better now that we’re past elections and Bitty is ripping.
