 Unpopular opinion: nostr is failing because if you're not an og you're a nobody  
 Everybody is somebody. But I know what you mean. 
I don't know if nostr us failing or not but I'm sure having fun and meeting all sorts of new characters. The meet ups are cool.  
 I suppose failing wasn't the right words. Just seems like...and not just for my toxic pessimistic shit posting self... conversations are slower or non-existent in some cases. Idk maybe it's lack of use, be even so I'll see post after posts with few or not interactions.  Could be who I'm following as well 🤣 
 I have seen a slowdown 
 All in due time. I'm still in love with the protocol 😍 just gotta keep interacting with lesser knowns.  
 I wonder how much the bitcoin price action impacts the mood and activity on NOSTR…do you think there will be a boom of activity over the next 12 months if the cycle ends up playing out like it has in the past? 
 Or OG posts are just safe spaces where strangers feel more comfortable chatting? 
 I'm meaning og people posting 
 If you think nostr is failing, you're not thinking over a long enough time scale. 
 Define "og" 
 Mmmm iykyk 
 Idk.  
 that’s dumb 
 To each their own fren
