It’s simple, really.
X is part of the crumbling fiat system.
I am trying to put the majority of my time, efforts, and purchasing power into building things that last, in order to create a better world for myself, my kids, and future generations.
I think that #nostr will play a major role in this better world… so here I am.
From Wall Street to #Bitcoin.
From centralized social media to #nostr. nostr:note12t8sr4exzv74u06852wdtvwj730sjmu7j5ft7t52pfhyex2a5pgq0pcuuf
I’m still rooting for Elon but I’m using nostr
I fuckin hate Elon. Despise that fraud.
that's like hating Dagny Taggart in atlas shrugged.
I'd like to see X run their own Nostr relay and give all of their users a bridge to interact with Nostr users, like the Fediverse and BlueSky and Threads people supposedly can. Let's truly have a public square instead of a bunch of walled gardens.
Building the world u want for ur kids
…I for one like it🤔🌅
Good on you my digital brotha🙌🏽
I get it. I do but it’s still a long way away. Get Max Keiser over here & maybe my opinion changes. Max was pro-freedom way before many could even spell BTC (publicly). And he doesn’t see the value in Nostr. Not at all.
That’s just one example of many.
God speed. I’m here & let’s see where it goes.
Max may have some blind spots, as we all do.
Maybe. That’s a big blind spot though, assuming Nostr matters to the BTC community.
It's a matter of acting on principles, not on utilitarianism.
Maybe. I’m not wholly convinced but maybe. 🤔
Well, if nobody does something because it's the right, and moral thing to do sticking with it by principles going against everything and everybody, who will? Should we wait for some govt decree? Some authority? A leader? An Elon Musk? A King? A president?

(To the original poster) I’d also venture that Nostr interest goes WAY up in the realistic event that an authoritarian United States government establishes more coercive censorship over X, or even manages to cripple it.
I 100% want twitt*r to lose. Its algos have ruined lives just to sell a bunch of shit nobody needs.
I just see X as a shitty experience, algorithms suck on that site. So much BS is sent to you. Net negative in my opinion.
Agreed on Algos. Curating your feed can make it very usable. Don’t get lost in the woods.
I think Nostr will be much better when there is an image filter for NSFW items, I can’t browse hashtags for all the crap that gets posted. Then an algorithm that I can adjust.
Damus allows you to blur images now.
So you want algos? Got it✅
Need a paid premium version, filter to only paid profiles, probably get rid of a lot of spam bots. Nice way for developers to make coin too.
Be the change you wish to see.

Thank you for taking that stand Jeff
Nostr is where the real alpha is because that is where Dr Bull Macro/Bitcoin views are (NFA of course)
I wonder why some people decentralise money and stop there. It's so obvious to see the benefits of nostr, but some just don't want to change their habits and beliefs.
The goal is to #decentralise your whole life!
Exactly. I'm also investing in the long-term. X can completely destroy our digital identities just because.
Why invest time in such a platform when there's a better alternative?
How will the user base grow without voices evangelizing Nostr on these platforms? I'm of the opinion that you should at least get banned for promoting Nostr if you're done with 'em. That is before they censor anything related to nostr on all platforms.
