Yea it perpetuates a movement, but articles talking about how there’s 1M users or whatever come after the 1M users….there was relatively little coverage between when they launched and a month or two ago, during which time they got 1M users. Blaming “the media” for losing users to competition is so lazy.
Most of the articles are about liberals leaving Twitter. Also, they are typical click bait pay per view stories on Forbes, fortune, BuzzFeed trash. But I'm not sure why anyone on NOSTR cares, personally. It isn't a competition, it is about more freedom, and the nostr protocol is the better choice at the moment.
