It’s gotta be the attack on software writers… Nostr provides a ‘safe space’… 😉 

 Hmm 

 Right now? #Damus #Al#reading#writting#thinking 

 Guerilla Marketing on Twitter posting their npubs 

 I like this idea. With a screenshot of the nostr post.  

 hey mark. welcome. i'd take a bet that it's a combination of a social platform CEO getting arrested, realizing that it could happen anywhere, seeing another social platform CEO admit to working with governments to censor speech, and FOMO from seeing others talk about joining nostr. 

 Hey Derek, thanks for the reply! A nostr legend. Love it! That makes sense. I wonder how these people heard about nostr. Sounds like an opportunity for user growth. 

 haha, hey, thanks. you're welcome. someone had to start the conversation, right? im not sure what happened on twitter to kick things off, but im loving it. 

 Twitter npub posts have gone semi viral the last few days. 

 I'm on X too. Pretty frequently actually. Surprised I haven't seen any of those.  

 That’s because you have to go on Twitter, not X. lol  I feel really old that I’ll never be able to remap that brand name in my head.

 overaching distrust in government, corporations, media et. al. 

 ..  good always prevails ..  

 What brings you here? 

 I'm a Bitcoiner and am in Digital Marketing. This is the future and I'm here for it.  

 Bitcoin is the answer  

 Governments being governments 🤷🏾‍♂️ 

 excessive government and platform overreach on all fronts 

 Telegram and Simply Bitcoin are under attack. Bitcoiners are tired of censorship of free speech are moving to Nostr that promises free speech. And can't be shut down. 

 Totally forgot about simply BTC already being booted from YouTube. Geez.  

 YouTube brought them back now, but still, it only shows that you don't own your content on legacy platforms.

But you do, on Nostr. Nobody will shoot down your Nostr content.

 On #Nostr the free market decides. Not an algorithm, not a single individual, not a corporation. Simple and moral. 

 Not centralized and fun to zap!

 For real... As I'm reading these comments there's more happening at one time that's driving it than originally thought.  

 Probably a bunch of stuff yeah 😵‍💫 

 People are seeing the incarceration of communication platforms and mass censorship.

We’re choosing to peacefully opt out of clown world. 

 You think we'll see it in our lifetime? I hope so... 

 Pour energy into the world you want to live in! 

 1. We've arrived at the stage where the UX just works. Competition between clients will only make that better. Competition fosters innovation and I think we will eventually beat multi-billion dollar budget FAANG clients. Take for example:
2. Zaps 😁⚡
3. You are your own algorithm. I can't recall the last time I was "outraged" on #nostr. On X outrage is the default
4. My impression is that the userbase is growing because content on here has breached a critical level

You are living proof, cheers 🍻 

 Love it! Gotta keep user growth coming to make this a reality.  

 desire for freedom  

 The Fourth Turning. 

 Fear. Uncertainty. Doubt. Came for the bugs, stayed for the hugs. 🫂🤙🫡 

 Everyone is feeling the need . . .
The need to be freed!! 

 Covid really woke some people up! 

 Curiosity 

 I’m new here. Have you learned anything yet? 

 Zaps are a very new concept for normies. I’d lead with that 

 Should you say Zap you some money? Or some bitcoin? Or better yet, normies love when you call it sats or satoshis! lol 

 Zuckerberg's letter 😅  

 We knew this based on the Twitter files when that dropped. The timing of the letter is interesting. A shift?
