 Algorithm is created by psychologists and scientists to keep people addicted. 

What methods have you thought of to keep me on Nostr besides making me believe that behind your fake accounts there are boomers with yachts?
#asknostr 
 Wait what. When it's time to build and be productive, it's time to get off nostr.  
 It was a very disappointing experience, but you should have played the role of the bumblers better. You are very weak actors. I am leaving. Bye 
 Other social networks have algorithms, Nostr has a boomer game.
Fact 
 My favorite method: engaging with you as another real human, curious about who you are and where you are in the world/life. Scaling this experience with additional users, to the point that Nostr is [arguably the only] truly social media network 
 Good luck with that 
 I hope I’m not jumping to conclusions (“assume makes an ass of u and me” and all that) but from the few notes of yours I’ve read thus far, I think you may find yourself more at home on Twitter/X. 

But if you feel like hanging out with people who are tired of the toxicity there, I’ll gladly introduce you to a slew of people who would welcome you with open arms here. 
 I know, it's hard to admit that you're wrong for digging into other people's data and trying to manipulate them. Only a 13-year-old would do that because an adult wouldn't. 
 You’re confusing manipulation with engagement. And you're simply doing something very wrong for which you're completely unaware. You have no idea how much harm you're causing to people by pretending to be someone you're not, manipulating them to make them feel important, while behind your accounts there are 13-year-olds. You have no idea what you're doing.  
 The only thing I wish is that what you're doing to the users happens to all of you, but I don't think even then you would realize the wrong you're doing. 
 Lol, you think I’m a 13 year old? Or everyone else is?

Have you ever been to a nostr meetup? Not full of gen Z kids I can tell you that… 
 Such a shame.  
 It's a gen z hooker troll larping as an intellectual. Lol  
 I know 
 Wen you gonna hook up with roya? You two would be the ultimate thirsty cringe fest we didn't know we needed to keep men away from gold diggers and in libraries and gyms. 
 I’m professional gold digger with years experience 
 I know. You two are perfect for each other.  ^_^

 Me and who? 😒 
 Roya. She's not hard to find. 
 No thanks I’m professional gold digger, not an amateur 
 She's better than you. She grifted jack. 

It's OK if you're too scared. Stick to what you know. So it stays the same.  
 Deam , how much money did I get from Jack? 10$? 
 @jack is this true? 
 Like he'll tell you. He has a hard time with communication. 

But as far as your other outburst.  Wow. Lol. But you guys would probably be good friends. Ngl. Y'all about the same age. You like to gen z cringe troll. I'm too old for that nonsense, clearly. I don't understand it. But Y'all would probably get each other.  
 Are you boomer? 
 Whips and chains 
 Still virgin 
 I make them Eastern Europeans scream, watch out
