 Non-bitcoiner social media normie shows up to nostr. They are used to being fed toxic algo garbage, and being helpless in the face of the garbage flinging machine from BigCo social media. 

In the most succinct manner possible, how do you convey the power and differences of nostr to the newcomer?

Objective is to
1) not scare them away
2) intrigue them

 Hah. Apparently we had similar thoughts.

 Perhaps to combat this as part of the onboarding process we emphasize customization and user control. The ability to choose our own algorithms. 
 If they pass the GFY test and stick around after being called gay and retarded, that’s all that matters here. 
 Thats actually a great test to find out who you need to mute. 
 My point is not everyone has the same personality type. Not everyone likes to be fucked with. 
 In jest of course 
 The fact that they can’t be censored and can speak their mind without fear. Free speech aspect should appeal to non Bitcoin people. Also interoperability between clients other clients should be highlighted as well. Also the fact that you own your data. All there together make a powerful use case for #nostr outside of #Bitcoin 
 show them the nostr algorithm
