 Are y'all noticing a general increase or decrease in nostr activity? How's the vibe re: new users? 
 All good, sir. They’re sending us boating instructors now.

 Welcome buddy 
 This is progress. Def progress.  
 I reposted his link. Best to encourage the behavior we like. I like powerboat normies. They make good neighbors

 SEASON ON BOATING ACCIDENTS INCOMING 
 I would say increase judging from my experience in global lately. 
 I feel like my personal engagement has grown. But I've also spent the last 6 months curating my follows for activity.  
 compared to last year nostr is like a whole different world 😅 
 I don't know for sure but each week I follow a few new people, and a few new people follow me.

 Amen 
 Enthusiasm is growing, I see it in engagement. And I also see an increase in non-Bitcoin related content, which I think is healthy for the ecosystem. I think platforms like #primal will increasingly help make that happen. 
 Primal still in beta but is in the right way 
 Today has been a little slow but I assume everyone was out enjoying their Saturday instead of shitposting. I was stuck at work all day and Nostr is what I do when I'm at work.

Overall it's been slightly more active this week I think. At least from the people I follow.  
 Goes in waves. But then again I am pretty intermittent so bad sample maybe 
 I’m not sure as I mostly annoy people so I never get a return audience 😂 
 you must be my brother from another mother 
 Slow and steady wins the race. I find my view of Nostr engagement is actually most shaped by my own capacity to engage. However, I’ve always found great engagement when ever I’m ready and able to engage.

Nostr doesn’t manufacture FOMO, promote outrage porn, or punish me for disengaging. I realize now that what I had initially mistake for decline overall engagement was actually just a social media environment that non judgmentally allows the user to prioritize their time as they see fit. 
 I've noticed I'm getting a lot more activity from your mom 
 Zing! 
 I’ve noticed  more activity lately 
 I think nostr need more content creators and a easy way to create relays without easy relays there is no descentralization 
 Thailand is killing it.  
 Your post is making waves.

 Rather just stagnant lately.

 My activity is up. 
That’s as far as my data goes. 
 Feels a bit slower lately. 
 I’ve been inactive for a few months. Not sure why. Ima try to do better.
