everyone!

everyone, why'd you want to ruin the place to be a cult with the people you like and agree with,

You are dead right though - Nostr is still regarded outside by many to "only be for people peddling cryptocurrencies". When I promoted it, I had to go a lot further in explaining it can be for everyone, and you need to follow your other interests on Nostr. Problem is, there are not enough non-crypto posters (if I can put it like that) to attract the other people yet. That perception needs to be altered if we want to attract more general audiences, otherwise Nostr is going to remain a small niche network. I see the greater potential it has due to the technology it uses, but many are just going to judge it by what shows up in posts. So we should ask what would attract someone to using Nostr, versus other networks, if they have no interest in cryptocurrencies? Has the normal user got enough control over what they see and follow in their feed?

Everyone. It needs to grow.

I miss people I don't agree with.

Without new and different voices it's just going to be another niche echo chamber.

nostr is a apolitical protocol, the different clients are used to customize your individual preference

nostr is for everyone and there is nothing anyone can do about it. The protocol is established in NIP-01 and everyone can do whatever they want with it as long as they follow that spec.

Everyone I disagree with and like!

everyone who can generate a public private keypair? However that doesn't mean I have to follow them or listent o them? Just like the internet. I dunno why this concept is hard to understand?

everyone, even rude people

just for me
