TIL about the 1-9-90 rule, which states that in general only 1% of internet users actively create and post new content, 9% contribute occasionally, and 90% are lurkers consuming content. Do you think this remains true for nostr?

I want to think it’s more than 1% who create but I think it’s true. Lurking is a thing ha?! People don’t engage.. just passively consume. Crazy how big that number is.

100%. But the ratios are slightly more balanced the smaller the community. For example a group chat of 15 friends will always have lurkers, but it’s definitely not 90%

0.00001% of nostriches are zappers, and 99.9999% are likers.

I often think about this. We have no visibility over how many people view our posts without interacting with them. I did the same thing for quite a while when I was on twitter

Damn, I gotta quit shit posting. I just assumed nobody is really here to see it.

This is pretty interesting. I think I am probably about 10% Creator, 40% contributor and 50% lurkapotomous. I mean lurking is so much fun and requires so little effort. 🤪

Soon it will become the 0.01-0.09-0.9-99 rule with AI taking up the 99%.

Did you create this pie chart?
node · 4w
Yes this is true. Which makes the 40000 users work. We’re like 400 creating notes 😂

You might conclude the pattern is the same with literature, art, film, radio, and TV

Does that mean that NPC theory is right , and only 10% are sentient to some extent and not just are decoration/texture to this matrix ? 🤔
