 Maybe wine needs another relay lol as well as the welcome one. One which shows new users that have stayed after a week and have engaged in conversation or something lol 

There's also a lot of new zbd users, who are a different sort of user really. Which I'm not against btw, they're just not really here in the same way the wider nostr people are here.

 Yeah, I detached the welcome relay. Pointless.

And those of us who post regularly will be seen by everyone, eventually. If they aren't following us, within a few weeks, it's their active decision.
And I respect that.

 It's a nice idea for a relay, but yeah perhaps pointless. A lot more clients seem to have set up a first post with #introductions template anyway. They should probably all be doing that🤔

▲ ▼

 Yes, but now we're welcoming bots and sockpuppets. 😂

We have bots with followers and welcomes and zaps, and then other people see them and follow them, too, as they figure they must be real, if they have so many good followers.

And that's how we end up with spammers with more followers than normal people.

 Lol yeah

 This is a good introduction. I'd respond to this, perhaps.

 I think I finally gave up after this one. 

I was genuinely excited to have a fellow logistics dev on here, that I could geek out with, and then he just ghosted. ROFLMAO. Felt like getting stood up on a date.

Okay. Nevermind then.

 It's quite good people are at least checking out nostr, not that surprised about the retention thing (all the reasons everyone already knows).

There will hopefully be a time in the future where these people will check back in to see if it's progressed.

 I think #siamstr might be nostr's biggest success as a genuine, active community (outside of BT expats lol;)). It's probably a totally different experience joining and having that to jump into.

Would love to know how that happened. Useful for people trying to replicate maybe? Would also be cool to see more regional/local interest groups popping up (there is perhaps a growing Chinese presence via the FreeFrom app, but not sure).

 There's a German community because of the #Einundzwanzig guys, like @Gigi and @BankSith

▲ ▼

 I can't believe that's a real word

▲ ▼

 It means 21. 😂

 I think we go sort of under the radar because we usually write in English.

▲ ▼

 See! I’m paying attention now as I go down the list! 😂😂

 And a "like" is also a way of responding. They can follow the likes back to my npub and decide for themselves if they want to interact with me.

I am an open book.
Literally.
