Mute lists, suggesting non-bitcoin topics. It’ll be hard for sure.

Happy to find you here, after your nostril vs blue sky interview

From a design point of view, a solution must be 10x its predecessor, or existing users won't migrate. Nostr is 10x for privacy lovers and those with something to lose; for others who care about comfort and ease of use, the duper mine effect of algorithmic social media, or the size of the audience, Nostr cannot appeal to them just yet.

I recently started this account to post insta/tiktok type viral videos. Trying to get more carried content on nostr. View quoted note →

zap.stream could aspire to pick up twitch streamers, who want an alternative space. Things like that work well for normie onboarding. They might not be interested in the whole nostr thing per say, but things that work.

thanks for sharing this @rabble - I love how this topic has been close to your heart, and you have triggered many great inputs and ideas in this thread and over time as well. But more so, its really nice to see so many agreements and disagreements and people just debating about this openly without attacking anyone.

That's why I'm here trying to hold down the other side of conversations. View quoted note →

To be clear. There’s nothing wrong with an enthusiastic bitcoiner community on nostr. In fact it’s really important to sustaining nostr. What I’m saying is we need to make it easy for other kinds of communities to and find their space. Some people care about knitting or Brazilian Jitsu, coffee, or drag, or tons of other things. Think of all the subreddits. Right now you join and see mostly people talking about bitcoin. We don’t make it easy to find the other people and content. The communities features help. Getting more kinds of content helps. Working on discovery helps. Making tools for enabling folks to enforce community boundaries helps like ability to opt in to shared mute / follow / content warnings. And some kind of algorithms for finding and recommending content and people. We can solve this.

going to tokyo?

lightning for payments was a huge turn off for me. nothing said "closed minded" louder than use my money. I pay content creators on youtube, reddit, tiktok, likey, patreon, kofi, gumroad, IG, OF. no muss no fuss. first day.
