 i wonder how those people normally see "investment of time" in social media, maybe people that use it as promotional outlet only? i would guess for most it's not about investment but "is it fun or not" 
 so you think nostr is fun? I thought we were all here because we were idealists! 
 yeah it's okay ! having some fun here

i'm really sick of X's doomscrolling, mastodon is generally too much of the same, bluesky is okay but dislike its false pretense of decentralization, nostr is still new enough to be anything (though that's reflected in the quality of the software, too 😀 )

haha i'm also an idealist... of a kind
 
 It's good to bee 
 is the quality of the software too bad? I hardly see any difference between this and a twitter app, but maybe I am just being generous because of my idealism 
 i haven't found any client that really works great, been switching between nostrudel and nostter (i don't use my phone for social media which rules out many clients already)

posts just getting lost, DMs not working, notifications coming in late or not at all
inserting media needs manual fiddling because the media server nor client adds a file extension
and lots and lots of smaller annoyances 🙂  
 oh I have never even trying DMs, thankfully voyage doesn't have them 
 oh be glad 😀 
nostter doesn't implement them either but does give a "you have a DM, check in another client" notification
then you do... then there's just eternal spinner hell 😀 
anyhow if youre technical enough it's often easy enough to figure out, but also a bit tiresome
