this post has almost 1 million zaps 

 I saw that. Who is this guy?

Why would you recognize you're being cucked by big tech and then willingly keep doing it? 

 No idea, but he has 2 million followers on twitter

 It's like a friendzone. Like choosing to marry a hot idiot instead of your best friend for no good reason. 

 And you think, "well if things don't work out with hot idiot, I can always fall back to best friend instead" 

 Looks like at least double over actual 

 I think it could start off as a 'help me find my frens' type HQ for posters who are often banned. Which will help establish it in its growth period, or something? 

 doubtful there is an understanding of actual implication - even after being signed up for a year and a half 🙄 

 This guy really has millions of followers? In a span of two minutes I see two low quality and quite bad posts. 

 People are tarded 

 It's also not simply "social media." Nostr being on his radar is cool nonetheless. 

 Shouldn't be reliant on a centralized service if at all possible anyway. 

 It's like the 5% Bitcoin allocation.

We all know what happens once you get a taste of freedom tech. 

 10%, 15%, 25%, ... 

 Agreed 

 X is owned by one of the richest tax eaters of history

 Should be but people won’t switch until they’re forced to. And the primary “feature” on these platforms is the userbase. 

So it’s more about being ready than demanding that people switch now. 

 💯 

 Plus the "signup" process to get going on nostr is a bar to entry compared to X.

So it will take more inconvenience than normal to get people to switch. 

 I feel like I’m the only person on here who never had a Twitter. I don’t even have a basis for comparison, nostr works fine for me. 

 foolishness.  the average person wants entertainment not integrity.

 

 Wish there was more talk here about how an American political party is trying to censor us by outlawing porn

 really, even the stacks of new cute girls who subscribe to your accounts every day don’t keep you in x? 

 "Should" <-- what does this word mean? Are you raging against reality?
