The withdrawals from leaving traditional social media platforms (twitter, IG, etc) are real. If you are new to #nostr and plan to seriously spend time here, I’d like to meet you. Come say Hi 👋🏼and tell me what finally pushed you over the edge 👇🏼 #introductions
Came here a while back but never stuck it out. Was just re inspired after watching Jack Dorsey on stage discussing it. How are you finding it mate?
I'm here for the same reason!
Ah pleasure. Hard to get to grip with but worth the time. I think anyway.
Now that I’m comfortable with it, I enjoy it so much more than twitter. You will to, just get your zaps setup and get your follow list really good. Try a few different clients like Damus, Primal, plebstr, snort.social & iris.to. If you need help, just ask cause a lot of folks in the community are very eager to help.
Think I understand the Zaps and I'll work on the following/followers. What's up with the clients part? Not sure how that works.
I joined before #MarchOffTwitter last year and spent March focused mostly on Nostr but still occassionally checking Twitter. A few months later my Twitter account was suspended making it easier than ever to stay away from there. As a programmer I find nostr attractive to build with because i dont need permission or need to get issued an API key. Ive made some bots and my primary development now is on cornychat.com, a nostr enabled audio space supporting logins, zaps, and customizations.
They threatened you with a good time.
Banned and/or silenced over and over again on the usual shite , just as I was getting sick of it #nostr emerged, been #nostr only since then , slightly lonely but I’m all in
Lol, those algos be hard drugs. Embrace the clarity.
It feels so good to have my brain back 🧠
You realize nothing really matters besides what you are actully experiencing, rather than being concerned by what the machine is pushing.
Seeing someone take a picture with controlled opposition. Had to come here to detox.
