 Fwiw, I'm pretty disappointed by the path this 'discussion' took.

Leave the hyperbole shouting and groupthink to the Twitter. Nostr is for benefit of the doubt and nuance (at least I hoped).

 I don't think it's a great idea to generalize the usage of a decentralized protocol and use such misconceptions to go bearish on it. New technology always looks inefficient when viewed from the old, and people like Seth always exist to yell at the clouds for changing course.

 It's not. But that doesn't mean we can't dig into the tradeoffs and discuss them normally.

Seth's work over the years has proven to me that he can be the one for reasonable nuanced takes.

The shouting is poor form on both sides.

 When a Nostr user goes back to Twitter, the average intelligence of both groups increase.

Few.

 I still visit twitter from time to time to harvest memes and read the few truly informative, insightful people there, but I always end up colliding with noisy, reprehensible retards and come back here quickly for fresh air that doesn't reek of smelly Americans. 😤

 Actually, it's the opposite for both of them...

Silos are always the dumbest.
