Oddbean new post about login | logout Went on Twitter for 20 mins after a long break. Omg I feel gross. My mind has been poisoned, I have a mindset hangover after just 1 shot. Drama. Trudeau. Price speculation. I feel a shift internally, and I notice the change in my emotional state much more now that I’m away from Twitter.
One of the problems of making single-follow-list clients is that over time it incentives discussions on what the majority can talk about (politics) instead of specialized interests few people care. Nostr has lists, but we are still following the same path. Amethyst has plans to address this and making it easier to go into topical rooms and talk freely without bothering all your follows. nostr:nevent1qqs84xlnpzcwzdtfxnk0ttcs6vgguvvdeka2qsr324ahwx52sv5kn3gpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qgspfrgnv6j7geetzvs6muqry9mclp4zxudyhklfjyel9r0sk0fjlggrqsqqqqqpp3c6c7
Same feel
I'm still pulled by the algo need more blooming
Ahhh yes I remember being where you are now in my social media journey. The next step is deleting your Twitter. It felt like storm clouds that were hanging over me finally gave way to the sunshine.
good move tried FB back in the day 2x for very short periods and it made me gag tried Xitter this fall and lasted under 24 hours it's good to see through it all to how you feel about because then you know the real truth 🤝😇
same for me here leaving twitter made my life better. https://primal.net/e/note1egqhlj8gnat8eyjdcn6sw426jr3sfyfzt4gntkn32ah8mnyc0d6sm4zndq
Omg yes, every time I go back. I wonder when I'll finally get Xober... nostr:note102dlxz9suy6kjd8v7kh3p5cs3cccmnd65pq8z4tmwudg4qefd8zspy62aj
NOSTR ONLY CLOSE YOUR TWITTER ACCOUNT
Deleted my account and never looked back after NOSTR for that very reason. Being on Twitter/X made me feel horrible. I would feel manipulated and stressed.
You can curate it more or less by what you react and follow. It is quite easy to get to a crappy place though so I hear ya.
