 I was trying to be nice but it created some confusion. 

I’m doing well and I don’t feel like I need a social media break or anything, I just don’t always feel like being in a public bitcoin group chat. Nostr can feel that way at times because I’m not obsessed with bitcoin. I say this with love. I support you all being passionate about bitcoin. It’s cool most of the time but other times it suffocates me a bit. I don’t have a problem with bitcoin, nostr or anyone here. nostr:note1hp35amxqvv7ws76wyw499r7f6zh6pg02fjc3muchr4r74j8j6z0skgnnsq 
 Totally understandable. Have good week fren ✌️ 
 How about talking to the #Fediverse peeps who are bridged onto #Nostr? Hardly any of us talk about #Bitcoin or other cryptos. 
 I might. I’m going to poke around and look at all of my options. 🫡 
 How can I tell y’all apart from the mastodon folks I can see but can’t see me? 
 For the last month, the top posts on r nostr have been about accounts you can follow that are not about bitcoin or nostr.  We do need alternative content.

 I feel you. Same here. I do not push much on here for the same reason. I still post as and when something pops up. So you are not alone ✌️💯 
 fyi,
you are (were) part of the solution to that.❤️ 
 💯 agree. we are always part of the solution. But it does not mean every day you are always at your best at finding the content that interests you; this is exactly what I have understood and feel from her post. I personally  had to scroll incredible amount of time before I can find topics that interests me. I am well aware of this and it is a price that I have to pay as an early adopter. 
The question now (for me to ponder) is how long could I wait for #nostr's searchability to improve? I guess only time can tell! ☺️ 
 you again. are you still insistently irate fiatjafs website didnt look right on your phone? 📱 😂❤️ 
 could not remember, have we met? I must have left an impression on you then. ty 👌
funny the way you call me "irate" speaks a lot about you ☺️ 
 yeah thats you. same deflection, projection, and redirection. 😂 
 curious - would you like to elaborate? 🤔 
 I know what you mean. There's a lot of people who use nostr like this / despite this. When the price of bitcoin changes it gets especially monotonous.

There is that one relay which mutes bitcoin chatter.  
 You have great taste, nostr and the world needs people like you. 
 it's still the early stages of nostr. The nerd ratio is still a bit high

we appreciate the pumpkinfarming that balanced it out a bit, but more growth of general non (btc, nostr) content is needed for us to thrive more and better here 
 Create a second profile and choose 1 as your everything account, and 1 as your nothing Bitcoin related account. Just mute the accounts that talk about Bitcoin a lot on that account. 🙂 
 Been feeling the same way recently, I've honestly gotten pretty bored of bitcoin talk unless it's about building a native economy. I blame the bull run, people are a lot more focused on building Actual Things™️when they aren't going gaga over the fiat price. I'd much rather talk about music, so many people dropped bangers this year
