1. The progressives arrived to school us and brought their bots to monitor us so we stay in line. 2. The state created a chill effect by going after bitcoiners (who may or may not have breached some regulation), and doing it in a cluster to give credence to a narrative... basically 'get your bitcoin from BlackRock not from each other'. 3. The halving was hyped up to ridiculous levels, giving noobs a feeling of euphoria and immanent moon, only to hit an anticlimax in discovering that the real price action comes next year (first time meme.jpg) 4. The protocol and tools are changing rapidly, not yet settled, and there's too many options and combinations right now, mostly half baked and buggy with health warnings attached, so it's taking a while to figure what all this is good for... one person's amazing use case is another person's waste of time. 5. Custodial or non-custodial and risk of rugging put a dampener on the joy of zap. 6. Changes in how relays do their relaying, and the need to pay monthly for anything half decent that isn't fediverse level spam, means the content of your feed is harder to predict. No algorithm but also little control or predictability unless you hunt for stuff and change up your client and relay combos. 7. Impatience about wanting to monetize effort invested here, since the early promise was earning megasats for memes, comments, and takes. 8. Pura Vida, Good Morning, Good Vibes, Biblestr, Coffee Chain, Pleb Chain and Nostrich love all displaced by 'GFY'... we came to find our tribe but now there's division based on tribal markers, and you're guilty of something if you're not in the right tribe. 9. People thinking this is social media. That's for starters πŸ’œ
