 @Whitney Webb is criminally under-followed on Nostr. 

I highly recommend you check her out. nostr:note16g5ufzg23kjpdclqeqj4qpraxrl9ev22mx9ujz6kaj8hafv7l76sjjraq8 
 Didn't know she was on nostr, thanks! 
 I feel like I don’t see her stuff. I think the algorithm is blocking her. 😆

I suspect I need a client side “algorithm” to sort posts in a different way, because the chronological only timeline I think likely means that I don’t see as many posts from people who are engaging at a different time during the day. 🤔 
 Possibly because she doesn't really interact  
 @Whitney Webb  is a hero! 
 💯 ya'll should definitely be following @Whitney Webb

 would be great if she would share her npub on her homepage/description. 

could anyone verify her? 
 Followed. 
 Does she think bitcoin can be turned into a CBDC? That’s what shitcoiners report as her stance. 
 She's very much about don't trust, verify. Which I think is good. I'm always amazed at how willing people are to just accept orthodoxy. Which is the con man's bread and butter..👺👹💰💊💉🤮😫💀⚰️✝️🤧 
 Please follow this person who isn't even on here because she's big on the shitshow you came here to escape from.

Also, don't notice that she only follows herself.

 some npubs operate like RSS feeds. but you’re still right. 🤓 
 I don't follow the person, I subscribe to the information feed. Engaging with the person is a bonus while I'm here.

Also, Whitney is a gem. 
 Irrelevant. Don't complain that people on Nostr aren't following a bot-feed, like we're all missing out and she's feeling unloved. 🙄

Bizarre marketing ploy. 
 Did you just defend the honor of a RSS bot from a person that doesn't even engage here, to a real woman?

This whole episode is bizarre. 
 No I made the point that the RSS bot is useful to me, so that I can see updates without the need to go looking elsewhere. Means I don't need to leave this environment.

Whitney herself is doing excellent investigative journalism. That's her proof of work. We don't need to know each other for me to find that body of work valuable.

I don't get what you mean by marketing ploy.
