I used to spend three hours a day on Twitter. One year ago, I deleted my account. Now I’m only on Nostr, and I spend maybe ten minutes a day scrolling.
 The difference is extraordinary.
 The noise is gone.
 The manipulation is gone.
 And when I leave, I don’t feel drained, I feel uplifted. That’s when I realised something important:
the new system isn’t just technically superior. 
It’s psychologically healthier. But the real question is this:
how do we help people transition? The answer is monetisation. When creators can earn directly from their audiences, without platforms, advertisers, or banks, they will come.
 When they come, they’ll bring their communities with them. 
And when those audiences can earn by promoting what they love, the migration becomes inevitable. That’s what Fanfares makes possible :
a media economy where the network itself becomes the discovery engine.
 Every person who finds something valuable becomes a paid promoter of quality.
 No algorithms. No ads. Just trust, consequence, and value flowing peer to peer. Decentralised, open networks are not just better technology.
 They’re the next phase of human communication.
 They are where attention becomes aligned with meaning again, 
and where we finally reclaim our time, our minds, and our freedom.

the truth is I hope that one day the fandoms will find a space in 'nostr', because many fans had to be migrating from page to page due to the changes that each page made at a certain time, I wonder if 'nostr' can help the problem that many have fans when sharing their works. tumblr was abandoned because they banned nsfw content. facebook the same but worse, it is increasingly difficult to upload memes because its algorithms are alerted too easily. twitter, according to it, is freer but they reduced the reach of my publications for a simple comment.
Love it, realised I deleted my Twitter slightly over a year ago. Maybe spend more than 10 minutes a day, but every so often, what I write here actually means something to me, rather than me writing something then self censoring to prevent the rozzers turning up at my door at 1am in the morning. image
The real winner is a consciencous user who can sway their window into this and actually get value from it all rather than be spoon fed shit garbage endlessly. As someone who never really interacted with the ragebait games being played elsewhere on social medias, despite its problems, inefficiencies and dangers (thinking it is much like the other social medias) Nostr is user empowerment. I may not be here to curate, create or dispense anything of real value to others, but I agree with you, this place has keeps me coming back precisely because a lot of the people who aren't here to "create value" are exactly the ones creating it.
I feel the same way. Back on Twitter, I always felt like I was drowning in information. Now on Nostr, it's like breathing clean air again 😂. The pace here is slower, more free, and feels more like real conversations between people. It mirrors the lifestyle I cherish now—taking my Explorer Yacht fromhttps://www.yachttrading.com/yachts/explorer-yachts-for-sale/out to sea, where the water is serene and free from unnecessary noise. Sharing content occasionally, I even connect with like-minded souls. Compared to being pushed along by algorithms, this sense of controlling my own pace feels truly satisfying.

Just read “El éxodo del bitcoiner” by @npub15zp3...cthe — a sharp reflection on why the Bitcoin conversation feels quieter lately. It connects Peter McCormack’s question “Where is your fight?” with the move of many Bitcoiners from Twitter to Nostr — and how, just like the U.S. left moving to Bluesky, that migration might have reduced the clash of ideas that once made Bitcoin culture so vibrant. Even if you’re not fluent in Spanish, this one’s worth translating. It’s about how echo chambers — even well-intentioned ones — can dull a movement’s edge. https://zipline.aaroniumii.com/go/el-exodo-del-bitcoiner
