I used to spend three hours a day on Twitter.

One year ago, I deleted my account.

Now I’m only on Nostr, and I spend maybe ten minutes a day scrolling.


The difference is extraordinary.


The noise is gone.


The manipulation is gone.


And when I leave, I don’t feel drained, I feel uplifted.

That’s when I realised something important:
the new system isn’t just technically superior. 
It’s psychologically healthier.

But the real question is this:
how do we help people transition?

The answer is monetisation.

When creators can earn directly from their audiences, without platforms, advertisers, or banks, they will come.


When they come, they’ll bring their communities with them.


And when those audiences can earn by promoting what they love, the migration becomes inevitable.

That’s what Fanfares makes possible :
a media economy where the network itself becomes the discovery engine.


Every person who finds something valuable becomes a paid promoter of quality.


No algorithms. No ads. Just trust, consequence, and value flowing peer to peer.

Decentralised, open networks are not just better technology.
 They’re the next phase of human communication.


They are where attention becomes aligned with meaning again, 
and where we finally reclaim our time, our minds, and our freedom.

Awesome. I have wen the extra mile and deleted all social media; Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok. I am more productive and my mental health has improved tremendously.

Noticing how you feel is so valuable. I also remember when I’d get off X I’d often times just feel like dog shit.

Still can't get a working wallet that can send and receive zaps. Still need lots of work, but there's hope

I can get behind this. 🫡

This. Exactly this! Nostr is your experience I wish I would have deleted Twitter when you did. I’m a noobie, only a few months in

Reading this makes me nostr bullish.

I feel the same way. Back on Twitter, I always felt like I was drowning in information. Now on Nostr, it's like breathing clean air again 😂. The pace here is slower, more free, and feels more like real conversations between people. It mirrors the lifestyle I cherish now—taking my Explorer Yacht...

#Nostr is the best.

Nostr is great

So far I have only blocked the X feed on my desktop. Never visit it on my phone anymore because I know how much it will drag me into doomerism

My X algorithm has stated to drive me insane.

Have to agree. Still have some X accounts, rarely go on there. Many have been deplatformed, mainly for incorrect AI judgement and then we find out that their AI automatically rejects appeals.

I deleted my account last week. All in.
Iggy · 17w
Agree, been comparing the two recently. Twitter is way more addictive and Nostr provides way more value ⚡️

Most content creators monetize their advertisers, not their followers. With that premise it is not profitable for him to come to #nostr Still 👀

That's why I deleted my tweeter...nostr is home 🏠

There is nothing better than aligned incentives that result in better mental health and community connection 💜 #nostr rocks

Deactivated my account on twitter for similar reasons for the second time this year. I think I might just manage to stay away this time.
