I know we all have free will, so I’ll exercise mine right now to express my opinion I automatically think less of a person when they pay for twitter And yes I know I shouldn’t think like that. Perhaps in the future I will reach that level of maturity I just can’t help it you know? To be fair, I do give Starlink a pretty penny each month for my kit So I guess I’m in the same hole as the dum dums that pay for twitter🤟 At least my node will keep running in case Canada pulls a Bangladesh
I can understand. Because it can be about protecting time. And not everyone wants to try and spend time converting people who don’t want to be converted. The next best option. Leave. Go play another game. That’s what we did with Bitcoin. We didn’t stick around to convince anyone. We just left and enjoy our life where we are appreciated more.

Fair. I'm out here trying to stick it to the system I guess. Also, I worry that if this doesn't get adoption that the incentive to develop on it will start to fade. Plus, we're stronger civilians when we are able to speak to each other. If no one's here, and everything else gets censored/banned how will anyone talk? However, I get the time component since it's limited. There are a few dynamics at play.
Yes. I agree. I commend those who “stay and fight”. We still educate a lot of unknowing people where we go. We just live in to the “lead by doing” example more. Our life situation also leans towards our choices easier. We are excited to see more pockets of people who live by example where ever they are to create the world they want to see.
Even though I’ve been on nostr for a while, out of habit I just kept using X. But over the last few days I’ve been changing that, and making Nostr my main feed. It’s great over here, love it. Such high quality people and STRONG signal.
You’re on the bird app to make yourself secure among others. You’re on #nostr to make yourself secure among relays. relays don’t care who you are or what you post. They just file away and ensure you’re digital history cannot be altered or erased. Others will lie to you and give you false security.
I believe that, long-term, Nostr, is the most safest bet. I live in Europe, and already the "free-speech-guru" Elon Musk is being threatened with "cutting the oprability of X within Europe, since not following EU's rules". Well, there you go. Nostr is the safe bet. In this ego-driven world, it is only a matter of time someone tells you that you can't say something online. Opt out.
Bitcoin is post-economic. Trying to help people rather than extract money from them is the future. British HODL fails to understand this. He is a hodler, but in some ways he still has a fiat mindset.

Folks over on X are having a difficult time understanding why I’m focusing my efforts on #nostr. Here’s why: image

Thanks, @less , for bringing your cheerful insights to us here in the Nostr community. The ability to find personalized signal apart from the noise of ads, algorithms, and "like and subscribe" is valuable. Glad to follow you; I always read and consider what you have to say.
