It might be that they didn't use it enough to "get it",
@Max said it best, using X and other legacy social media show you stuff based on an algorithm but nostr has Bitcoin payments behind it so it shows you what you would like. "And so we build a way to send and receive Bitcoin so that your friends see what's the stuff that you like. And that's a social signal that's not just likes and reposts but a real monetary cost of, hey, I value this thing. And
@Gigi has the perfect line of, you wouldn't zap a car crash. Car crashes are something you just have to look at when it happens. You don't really want to see it, but your attention is drawn to it. You're somewhat tricked by your brain to actually look at it. But you wouldn't send money to it for how great it is. so we have a car crash economy in our attention seeking in the legacy social media that makes you see stuff that you don't really want to see but you're forced to look at it because the algorithm chooses to maximize for your attention and in nostr we can simply make that obsolete" from
@Efrat Fenigson podcast. I had never thought of it before but yeah some people believe more noise IS more relevant unfortunately.
