Here's an anecdotal data point on Nostr.

Yesterday I asked people on both Nostr and Twitter what tropes in fiction they don't like. I have about 10x the followers on Twitter than Nostr, but I only received like 6x the number of replies on Twitter.

So Nostr had a higher relative engagement rate.

Was there a difference in the content of replies, as well? Different common answers, etc

same impression I got. nostriches are here to engage, exchange thoughts and share content ... not just consuming

You think that has more to do with nostr itself or the types of early adopters that are here now?

But you have 74k Nostr followers. I have 400. We are not the same. 😂 Just being silly. I love you and your work.

I think everyone there now is infected with some political zombie brain disease. Anything else other than politics doesn't get noticed.

Community thrives when replies are alive!

I agree. I have 1300 followers on IG, and 400 on here. I make sales internationally get reposts and get paid and my IG is crickets.

Great to hear! However, you are probably the top account on nostr, or close to it. Life for new users is very tough on nostr, right now. They get little engagment or help. At the same time Bluesky are adding 1 million users a month. So there must be some demand.

nostr Lyn is much cooler than Twitter Lyn though. And Twitter users don't even know about your upcoming book. I keep hoping nostr Lyn will set a different profile picture than Twitter Lyn.

My feeling is that there are more real people wanting to engage at Nostr.

It’s because here, everyone loves you. There, everyone wants to use you as bait for engagement. One sees, the other objectifies.

I feel the people here really want decentralized platforms to succeed. They have a better long term vision and generally more focus on the correct way to create a better future for humanity.

So basically, Nostr is like the cool coffee shop where everyone’s listening, and Twitter’s the noisy pub where you’re lucky if someone catches half your sentence. Looks like Nostr wins the 'engagement Olympics' with fewer followers but more thoughtful responses.

TWITTER USER NUMBERS ARE INFLATED AND IMPOSSIBLE TO VERIFY.

The great awakening. People are uniting once again.

For what it's worth I follow a LOT more people on twitter than on Nostr, and suspect I'm not alone in that situation.

How did you count all the spam accounts and reply accounts that lately appeared on nostr?

And it’s obviously real engagement. This is a new fun profile for me but my Twitter engagement and steadily growing followers are 80-90% bots.
