 Most people wouldn't put up with the incessant slogans and posts about the price of bitcoin changing and general almost monotopic content here. Let's be real lol. It's easier to imagine the technical side being resolved than it is to imagine a change in culture ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

 Out of curiosity, how do you come to speak for "most people"?

 I just didn't want to start a sentence with 'I would think... Most people'. And I was mirroring the previous post I was replying to lol.

But how I came to this conclusion:

A huge number of complaints about nostr are along these lines.
Most people leave nostr... I think this is actually verifiable lol with retention rate? (Not sure about the maths on this lol tbf)

I think it is a sensible guess. (Or do you think the majority of the population want to see the same 5 bitcoin slogans repeated over and over again in their timeline?)

 You may very well be right. Personally I think these people that you refer to (the stupid price predictions and the need to be the first to say something) are the insecure Twitter fucks that have spilled over to nostr perhaps in need of a hug. For the most part I see so many talented and intelligent young people here that it blows my mind. Peace to you friend.
