Yeah. It's not even worth posting about Nostr over there. 

"If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry."

 Exactly 

 Because it has at least 10,000x the network effects 

 Not all of us are addicted to attention 

 Clearly. But way too many are. Hence why they keep using. 

 The problem is when ppl come to nostr to larp about how bad Twitter is yet they keep using it. 

 90% of me visiting X is to see the trending page. 

Get the X trending page here and I won’t open the app. 

 I think Primal has something similar 

 @primal has some trending creatures but they are mostly focus on trending posts and trending people. 

I like seeing trending hashtags in ranked order.

X Trending for me is like a news aggregator. The. If I see something interesting I go searching. 

 Features* 

 It will improve. But tbh we all need less news streamed into our brains anyway. 

 Yes. I’m so sick of hearing about twitter drama on here. 

 I love being out of the loop. Let’s you see how retarded and pointless the drama really is. 

 noooo bring back the guillotine noooo 

 It’s been hard for me, for stupid reasons. I like the UI.

Just got suspended from X so no time like the present to cut the cord so to speak. 

Fuck X, long live NOSTR 

 Welcome to the #plebchain 💜 

 Welcome to Nostr 🤙 

 Really? 🤔

Actually, besides the obvious reasons I wouldn't use #Twitter, I also hate the UI. It looks like they took a mobile page, zoomed into it by 500%.

I cannot look at things, when they are magnified with the hubble telescope. 

 Agreed with the sentiment. But the unironic answer to your question is that the algo like all social media algos is intentionally designed to be addictive. 

 Right. But pretty much everyone on this side of the internet understands this very well and continues to let it control their life. 

Meanwhile they’ll do ridiculous things like live completely on bitcoin even though playing fiat games is also highly addictive. 

 I've not seen any Twitter drama on my timeline, maybe time to curate and prune?  

 Alcohol is addictive too, but most people tend to be relatively responsible about their consumption. 

 Most. 

 I ditched my account about a month ago maybe? I was never addicted to Twitter so much. Instagram on the other hand... 

 Oof. Dial back that IG screen time my man 

 Agreed. Worse than Twitter in most ways. Problem was that it was good for Photographers when it began. Not so much now. 

 I deleted Twitter of my phone, jumped on there on my PC today and oh my the negative energy was so noticeable.

Fuck Twitter.  

 Agreed! 

 I am a new pleb around and was kind of skeptic. Love the self sovereign principles (still have to make my homework about the protocols) but have received more help than ever could have expected at Twitter being just a newcomer. Loving the freedom, hope it goes beyond a “tribal” thing and gets more widely used. Doing my part! 

 This is the way. 

 I lurk there for CT signals and to bring content over here. 

 That's more or less why I'm holding onto my account. Funnel people over here. 

 It’s even more liberating than fleeing the cesspool that is Facebook 

 Agreed! 

 Indeed. #NostrOnly is the real deal. Stop hanging onto obsolete shit. 🙂 

 Agreed! 

 Still a lot of network effect 

 friendster and myspace for the win
