Just saw the video of the guy that asks the boomer lady to sign a petition for illegal immigrants. Then he brings them in on a bus and invites them into her house.

What is the name/channel #asknostr

The truth is: I don’t know! That’s part of why I asked. I think the truth is there’s a “bubble” because Dorsey came in too early imo. It artificially spins out projects that don’t have organic need or product market fit.

I think an interesting and more organic direction to go would be things more like usenet in the 90s. Some ideas around this theme:
- Twitter/forums (obviously)
- Academic research and collaboration (fewer rent seeking journals)
- things like encrypting and storing medical data and having it follow the individual

None of the use cases you mentioned are good use cases for DVMs. You’d be better off running Open Web UI on a laptop and pay $0 marginal cost.

Beyond that component of impracticality: Every DVM interaction is public by default. The PlebAI guy made Pablo add encryption but it’s still retarded because you’re leaking metadata of which services you’re using. Why? The only use cases where a DVM makes sense are ones where you don’t give a shit bc you’re going to share results immediately or where nostr data itself is intensive to the work product. Can’t think of another good reason.

No offense but seems like hopium.

What are the clients/business models you think have the highest chance of success #asknostr

I see a lot of “roads to nowhere” and effectively central planning due to the fact that Dorsey doused nostr in money.

I’m really curious if there’s any organic use cases that are bullish
