Notes on Internet Addiction

I grew up on the internet, and I love it, but something broke in me during the COVID era and its aftermath.

So a lot of us are here because of the bot problem on centralised social media and the inability to distinguish between what’s real and what’s not. Wouldn’t it be possible to generate new ids on nostr, give the private keys to an AI bot and have them post here ? I’m sure this is a naive question but would appreciate clarification #asknostr

Logging into primal after a week given X is down. There’s a lesson in there for me that I’m starting to realise.
