re: his point on retention. It is true that most people do not stick around. It’s sad that “make people addicted to your app“ by pumping retention is the standard of success. My main goal is to just build tools that people find useful and gives them freedom in ways to communicate that don’t “go down” or get censored. Maybe most people don’t need or want this solution right now. Maybe elons vision of free speech is “good enough” for most people. Some things are just out of our control, what we can focus on as nostr devs is continuing to polish our solutions and be ready for when we are needed.

Many people are lazy and don't want to be free when choices are literally there in front of them under their nose. But my golly wills they b*tch, moan and ask for government safe guards for speech on privately run platforms, when they could run or use one that fits for them (using a custom or runni...

Keep going man. Quality lasts. You can sell anyone anything with a silver tongue but it’s quality that keeps them around long term

A lot of not wanting to come here I think is that it’s all Bitcoin related which instantly makes people not a fan of it. Bluesky is quite good and I like to use it same amount as Twitter. Here I check every other day kinda because I’m not interested in Bitcoin. If that ever goes away then I thin...

You are doing great 🤙 Manz people (luckily) never get into a situation where free speech is so heavily restricted that it actually hurts them. For those who seek an alternative, nostr is the place to be 💜

But is it ready for the masses if/when they do come? Not without a built-in solution to spam (i.e. cost baked into the protocol, not bolted on like with zaps). Nostr right now is a better IRC with nice app support. Which is very nice and I enjoy it, but I'm under no delusion that it actually plays ...

Or maybe people have legitimate issues during onboarding and when they complain about it, there is no one to listen or even care

Are you aware of any app to incentivize X users to post on nostr? Ideally they could tweet through the app which 1) simultaneously posts to X and nostr, 2) potentially rewards them monetarily through sats. Alternatively, is there a way to use AI to post “read only” content from X onto nostr? I a...

While I’m still learning the nuances, I firmly believe #Nostr needs to exist, especially for nations like #Brazil that are going through a crisis and having their rights to #freespeech stripped from them in rapid fashion. Build your product where the greatest need is. When it works, the masses w...

You're doing good work that matters. You will never see all the ways it has positively impacted people, but know that it is!

I was immediately a nostrich despite no social media accounts. We all know it’s just noise from X.
