 Nostr doesnt need more assholes they are already here but like a townsquare they get ignored
One of the best things of this protocol is the lack of a rage algo 
 Can’t we all just get along? 
 Gfy 
 😂🤙🏽💯 
 Hey! You can Gfy too, buddy! 
 Hell yea! 😈 
 My point being nostr is not nice because there are no assholes 
Nostr is nice because it has no incentives to be a asshole.
Imo it actually incentives being kind to a degree  
 Yeah exactly that’s why it pairs so well with Bitcoin, it’s the opposite of fiat mentality and every other social media so far that has the ulterior motive of monetizing everything. Not everything should be monetized. Here it’s just an option and when value is expressed it’s more genuine that way and it’s in an instant a giant relief to find because it’s actually fostering the connections we were promised by the internet.

That’s my 2 sats anyway. 
 Agreed. However, I think it remains to be seen whether or not Nostr clients and relays can be profitable. I think it’ll be harder to be profitable without algorithms. But hopefully they will. And Nostr is more than just social clients so there should be a wide range of ways for people building on Nostr to make money. 
 I am really curious about solutions toward that problem but fully agree 🤝 
 We’re here building tomorrow. Not arguing over today. 🧡💜 
 I love that 🤌

🎯💯 
 what is a rage algo 
 Hes lying and taking advantage of your knoweldge of rage algo 
 Simplified its how the way views likes etc gain Traction conflict is incentives because it gets the clicks 

Very brief but thats the main idea  
 similar to corporate media click bait  
 Go to Twitter and observe. 
 Truth. The reality is that this platform is more about live and let live than cancel culture. Freedom is more rampant here than anything other site. If you don’t feed the outrage, it withers and dies. 
 The last line is a banger.

We might have algorithms on some clients here as well with the difference being that on Nostr, we can opt out of those clients and preserve our social graphs. 
 Bingo 
 🎯 i 
 Reporting for duty!

Couldn't agree more though with the sentiment.

 Nostr es bueno para la salud mental 🤙🏻💜

 I can't believe some of the racist shit spewing I've heard on here. The beauty is, we can ignore them forever.

 I bully you all the time 🥹🫂☺️ 
 No WONDER I can't drum up rage. We need an algo!  I'll get right on it.   😛

 This artwork by Banksy from the UK is a great depiction of a typical Nostr user. 

Love is in the air.

 We could have a rage moment right. Like a zapathon but 5 minutes where all nostriches post “aaaaarrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh” to communally remember the ridiculous rage on algomedia platforms. 

Fridays are zapathon days, I’ll throw my hat in the ring for Mondays 9am wherever you are as rage moment!

 nostr will be less boring if theres drama, one way to make drama and to get more assholes is to make nostr-bsky bridge happen  
 I am of the idea that in each person there’s something to discover; all that’s is needed is to listen. Either on Nostr or in a square.   
 yeah you're 100% correct

just some peeps don't want to be discovered so they active block attempts

and others are so horriffic you gotta question whether you really want to discover what they are 
 except that one time Zuck joined

was it really him?

 We definitely need more people on #nostr! This is my contribution to onboard more people, feel free to share!: https://m.primal.net/HnUB.mp4 
 Imagine how different the world would have been if the social media had started here!
