 People are leaving #nostr out of frustration 

I get it

There are PLENTY of issues currently 

But you have to understand where we are right now

It's like being frustrated with bitcoin in 2012 because it couldn't scale

Things are being built and being built FAST here on nostr

Have a bit of patience and consider supporting the devs who are building here on nostr 
 🎯 
 On this note...

The Daily Bitcoin Journey is launching TWO new initiatives going forward

1. A bitcoin fund for rescue dogs 
All zaps from the live show on Mondays will flow straight into a bitcoin fund for rescue pups like nostr:nprofile1qqs0gfa463m52evljffgc44ax6p4uwzwgysp5z84mjkvcp4229f25ngpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9up04lpm
*we have several people who have already raised their hand to help with this but if you're interested in helping in any way - please reach out 

2. Open source Thursdays
All zaps from the live show on Thursdays will be sent to Open Sats to help fund bitcoin development 

These will come into effect next week!

 I dunno… 
I’m glad when people like that leave. their god is themselves, and they worship their own comfort.
having them through a Karen tantrum and leave is the best thing that can happen for nostr. 
 Who's leaving Nostr? 🤣 
 People might leave #nostr but their npubs don’t. 
 Npubs are forever 🥹 
 Dude, after this weekend, I’m coming back! 
 Let them leave! This is like those posts, “I sold my #Bitcoin for $12. It’s dead.” 
 It’s not ready for the dopamine chasers and that’s okay 👌 
 I actually heard and ran into Nostr related stuff at the Bitcoin Conference last week so I’m inclined to see as growing. 
 it's shit and doesn't work but I will die on this hill 
 I am seeing and zapping this thread. I think it works 
 literally receive no zap 🤣 
 Hmmm maybe you have one of those 7 sat zap disrespectoor wallets. One sec 
 WTF YOU TRICKED ME, NOT KEWL https://image.nostr.build/de986e5a074063b915f2d9dbcf85d337f6ba63f7c2986e6155b87a6ed01d5aa3.jpg  
 Dude, you're making my point and still 21 sats in profit. Cry harder 
 Whoah there pal. First of all your point was that you “literally receive no zap” which is false which i proved. Also don’t zap me. Also i’m not crying i swear 🥺 
 your point was that another person seeing a note and zapping it somehow proves nostr is working, this is inadequate. the user effort required to post the note is invisible, then I could not even see your zap 
 It’s literally working right now, this is nostr working. Have a good day 👍 
 If you didn't feel so triggered by someone having a different experience to your own, you may have been able to laugh along with a joke instead of responding by bashing them over the head with your version of reality 
 To imagine nostr:nprofile1qqsdu987vtuhuz2zjkqln687cvts7089u7fk5gf5hacvslzl7g572wsprfmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68yurvv438xtnrdakszxthwden5te0wp6hyctkd9jxztnwdaehgu3wd3skueqpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduvz79tr not having a laugh right now 😂

 Instead of essentially begging ppl to stay tell the developers to Amp up their game 
 I don't know why. I've been on FB recently trying to sell some stuff locally. It sucks you in for scrolling but it is awful. I don't know how people spend so much time there anymore. Some of the memes are legit but the toxicity is endless  
 It’s about their values. Truly. 

Ask them what they value & people will always show their truth. Or they are ignorant & need more education. Which is why we go on. 🙏 
 Here till the end riding this ship all the way… 🫂💜🫡 
 Same Daddy! Neva leaving 
 Neva eva  
 People can come back as fast as they leave. 
Personally I prefer browsing Twitter than nostr because there are just not enough interesting stuff to read on nostr.
I’d delete Twitter for once a critical mass of people I like to read from would publish stuff here regularly. 
 Build it here and over time it'll be much more valuable than one might assume at the moment.

 Agreed 💯 

nostr:nprofile1qqs8cajagp7n48275ytuhzuxn93g2crc0lqgfgx8dta2gjdlh5fpmpqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7xsykzv, I believe that those of us enjoying the roughness of infancy will greater appreciate it later on as well.
