I have been on X for 13 minutes this week, and Nostr for 6.5 hrs, and I feel at peace honestly. The X algorithm is evil. I love you all
I opened X this morning, then immediately closed it. 😅
I’ve gone on there to look for memes and then close it because it’s all rage bait
This is why you Nostr. nostr:nprofile1qqsvtctn0xx662wa9wqx9wp3p962a5989cmyt70935sjn0r2h52a30cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0ncuq0z posting I love you notes 😗👌 nostr:nevent1qqsd08cjqzw3gyl0zccerpmn0s4uln54dj48ypkqxk6t2807mrnwy3gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygx9u9ehnrdd98wjhqrzhqcsja9w6znjudj9l8jc6gffh34t69wchupsgqqqqqqs359qav
This place feels cleaner and interaction seems more organic. It’s an interesting feeling. #grownostr
Exactly!
Facts
I felt the same way...so I closed my X account too. nostr:nevent1qqsd08cjqzw3gyl0zccerpmn0s4uln54dj48ypkqxk6t2807mrnwy3gpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qgsvtctn0xx662wa9wqx9wp3p962a5989cmyt70935sjn0r2h52a30crqsqqqqqp6av9qz
🚀🔥🤙
Today, my first 24 hours without Twitter and i read a half of a book 🤯.
Damn! Nice
i feel the same🫂
So true.
Nostr is for #bloomscrolling
I like that 😁
the X algorithm is a reflection
It is only a reflection of what you interact with most. For me, I can’t help but get into arguments about politics, science, crypto, philosophy. Every time on go on X, I see posts from people who post rage bait, and I always give in. It is designed to be addictive, and to maximize your screen time. That’s how X makes money. The beauty of Nostr is that there is no incentive for it to be addictive in this way.
there is definitely that incentive for clients, but no one is taking advantage of that yet
People would just use FOSS clients that don’t show ads.
everyone acts on different incentives
True, I guess some people would use feature rich and well supported ad based clients. Kind of like choosing photoshop over GIMP, or windows over Linux
Go nostr only!
Here’s someone I want to spend more time talking to! What I particularly love is that it’s how you “feel” One can sense a difference. This will be a huge driver of adoption
Here people are kind
🩷🫂💯👁️🙌
Absurd how it works nostr:note108ksqkajcrkd3q68ya24xm9uyfw2hwc3qt958ueh9q9wyzggcn7ql2heyq
Gayest shit I read in a while
Muted.
It's a night and day experience. I rarely post on X but the algorithm is exhausting for sure.
For real
I'm just starting out here but I can say that I'm increasingly convinced the algorithms are almost as much of a problem as censorship. If not more. The objective function for algos seems to be clicks and attn rather than knowledge. Huge issue.
I agree for sure
You can be on Nostr for hours and not feel dirty.
Yep 😁
