 Twitter was famously told it couldn’t scale too.

 It didn't scale. It's all bots

 There was a time when bots on Twitter were fun parts of the ecosystem before they started pretending to be people.

 I would like to see some more 'content bots' on nostr. I've collected some I've found here on this list:

nostr:nevent1qqsv0y2vn4j305t3c22jcuwj8mc7cyeq93dlc4q3g5lqhxq73j33jeszyzw2p0t52p6z663qxxwqu02vv7wfupr2nhrsarh4ts5stcjq2g6qkqcyqqq82vqheslwg

They can be pretty good actually. Much more interesting than 'witty' ChatGPT chatbots, and obviously bots pretending to be actual people imo

 It didn't. It's still one server.

 Briefly for a day in 2007 it was federated. :)

 If you can’t scale storing and transmitting text with computers, then you’re not good at computers.
