yea but we already know the new generations don't talk in words, only videos.. nostr can't afford the bandwidth for this it seems.

Good luck with that. Trade schools won't do it either.

Maybe we can point them to a nostr-based Slack/Discord alternative that they can use for team-based assignments. When I was in college I project managed a student group that focuses on OS rocket and satellite designs. We didn't initially get funding from the school. We started out using Slack but for a while switched to Zulip as a free alternative that doesn't delete old messages.

Too bad it’s summer vacation

nostr isn't peer-to-peer, it's unc-to-unc

Agree, what bridge are me missing on #nostr that could be luring college students to cross over? ✨🧱🤔 #asknostr

What are you talking about? (Me 👴) 🤣🤣🤣

Boomer tells Zoomer what tech to use Sick one bro

I guess mature millennials are the new boomers 🤷🏻

Why would anyone go to college? Academia is dying a slow & undignified death

I thought college campuses were full of conformist anti freedom tech folks?

This is the way.

I’m at university and basically only use nostr finding it hard to onboard non bitcoiners though

yes

bitchat could be big on campuses, and be a gateway drug for nostr

Ya

Great idea!!!

The zoomer generation is trapped in the Apple and iOS universe. It's the biggest proprietary digital prison you can imagine. With the zoomer, we have a generation where technical skills are declining. They can't program in C or Assembler. You can shut down the Bitcoin app with a click of the mouse, and the zoomer are powerless.

You mean Gen X, following the Baby Boomers and preceding Millennials, the best generation that brought internet to everybody.

This would be really cool! How would one get a paid to go around and talk about nostr and bitcoin? Is anyone doing that? Does anyone else think about that?

those are millenials, they are old but cant figure it out

I presented on it once at a Young Americans for Liberty meeting at UC Riverside once. Unfortunately there wasn’t much interest. I probably didn’t do the best job pitching it, but it was still interesting that what I thought would be the target audience didn’t want it

IMO colleges and campuses are the places where students live that are overseen by a centralized system. So they like centralization. I think there is a high risk of them not being interested in Nostr because they like if someone oversees and controls them. It's according to Sri Lanka. But the effort is always good. :-)
