 What's a better way to grow on NOSTR?

Posting new content?
Commenting on other people's content? 
 Between those two i would say engaging with others, but idk

Also just like looking at replies other people get can be fun and help you find new kewl plebs 
 commenting is probably the way for new people to discover you 
 Also shitposting 😂 
 And live on nostr 😂 
 live seems like a winner 
 This is how I do it 😂

 lololol 
 Should you stack sats or stay humble? 
 C) All of the above 
 It takes both. The ratio between the two is probably relative depending what kind of content you’re posting, but in general I find that engaging with other people more often than posting my own content seems to work best.  
 saying both is a cop out. I know it's both.
choose one 😉 
 Define growth 
 Getting bigger… 
 big brain time 
 Since no one goes to global anymore, for obvious reasons, I would say that interacting with other folks' content is the main way.

If web of trust tools made global more usable on more clients, posting your own content might be a legitimate way to grow, too. 
 well said 
 Valuable content pipeline eventually brings engagement 
 you'd hope, but if the tools for discovery are weak... 
 Building proper tools take time, experimentation and of course dedication. I might be too bullshit on #nostr but I believe we'll get there.  
 you don't song bullshit at all 
 I believe posting content expands nostr but interacting solidifies nostr. Both are required to properly grow nostr. 
 Agreed.
