Indeed, algorithms are societal mind control.

I feel much less stressed out and angry since shutting down all of my prior social media accounts, other than #nostr.

I don’t miss them at all… not even a little bit.

Although unplugging from them (especially X) felt like breaking off a powerful addiction.

Shout out to nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m for the insight while I was still stuck in the matrix.

Stay Humble and Zap Sats


And zapping (even just an itty bit) is so much better than a generic like

I love seeing what the algos have to offer. It is why I am on social media, getting a temperature check of society.


We just need more non Bitcoin accounts here and we've made it... Miss my fitness and finance follows


Algorithms are modern witchcraft spells. Hidden and secretive incantations (code) designed to warp reality.

I think what I'll want is a paid service provider that will AI train off nostr notes, updated nightly, live search to current...then provide me a plugin in my app of choice that allows me to UI tune what I want and converts that to proper ai prompt/model giving me a resulting feed type category shortcut just for me.  It might be a feed based on content starting from a single note, or account, or let's me bookmark samples, and maybe I can mix in a mood setting like 'positive' or 'alarming' or 'deep dive'.  Basically I want to be able create my own algorithms that turn into feeds.


It's amazing how outrage can become our identity, to the point where it hurts to abandon that identity.


Insightful Post 👏


I’m be not been back since I started here and I’ve never missed it. I’m going to
miss these early days, one day


It is the only way I know what is going on in the world. Perhaps that is no longer needed. Guaranteed if my savings is more than I need I will sever my connection to the fiat financial world and attempt to work or consume only on native Bitcoin. At that point, if I physical protection, I guess nothing else really matters that I don't get directly exposed to.


I want to know what's going on in the world, but not in an algorithmic way.


It's a simple life... But one worth fighting for


Are you totally off X now Dr?


All my “stress free” accounts to follow moved here. Miss you guys! 👍
Only arguments and doom on X.
Will have to experiment more around here.


Welcome!


Yes.


I am much more relaxed here too.  I feel much more like I am selecting things to think about rather than having them pushed into my head.


Let's go 🚀


Onward 🫡


so you only care about bitcoiner stuff? because you won't find a lot of relevant news or newsmakers here. Example : RFK Jr or Vivek or even Tucker. to name a few. Also not many scientists here or people discussing geopolitics


They will come.
It’s still (very) early days here on #nostr.


Glad you're here Bro. 👊


Sometimes I miss the "news" from X but I think its also to just not give a shit what's going on in the world for a few weeks and just heal up.


maybe, but in the meantime, are you totally uninformed?
You can say you don't care, but some level of none Bitcoin/Nostr news seems relevant to me.
X is still relevant to me. Hard to replace with Nostr only


I know it can be a chicken and egg thing


It depends what you mean by “totally uninformed.”

I still get the info I want to get, and am unencumbered by much nonsense and hype that others consider to be “news.”

I had the same experience when I left Facebook a few years back. The only entertainment I got there was being wished a happy birthday on the incorrect day.


Good way of saying it; I feel the same way


For me
This is what being an
artist …. Is…

Digging deeper
Than I know possible

To find the part of myself
Hidden from everyone

And choose to feel
Emotions that I’d rather
Keep carefully hidden

For curation of a life
Is love and caring of others

You should be unattractive
Almost
Death
————

At first sight I fell for this man
It took us 20 years to get
Together
But it’s been amazing

He just told me
I force him to
Expand his
Vision
And understanding
Of the world
And that’s beautiful

We have and will
Consistently
Grow together
Absolutely
No matter what

Always, all ways 💜
———

Back to enemy
Though …
Shirking and shrieking
Smithing and smirking
Tighten or loosen

Same

Adam and Anthony
Evil and good
Live and evolve

Same

We are all fallen men
 Strong amongst timelines
 Games of sans don’t seal
 Destiny and fate

Same thing

 We are the guards
 Gods
———-

This explains a lot
Or not
What do you
Choose
To Be
You
Who
Are
Oneness
Divided by ____ sense
(You will get there)
Blinded by lights
You feel are shinier
Than you
Or are you
Exploited
Again
By Wealth
And hatred
Sass and grAss
AlphaOva
Tomato drips of
Every damn thing

- cause dam
———

It was never meant
To become
the saddest day for each
It could have been the last said
goodbyes

Perhaps
There was never a choice

Each ran back home scared
self-importance
Overwrought thoughts
precious time

Despite the kindness
one felt for others
Madness of selfishness
Sameness
——————


:nostrpill:


well noted, algorithms, like memes, block the ability to think independently, a person merges with the mass of consumed content, his individuality is lost, what he can really bring to the world.


that's power


There goes 90% of my use for that platform.


I’m with you though I do kind of miss the macro insights of Felix Jauvin and Quinn Thompson

Agree 100


This makes my Frankie 👁 Smile 😊


This is the way


The trivium can be an anti-virus for mind control.  nostr:npub1k7vkcxp7qdkly7qzj3dcpw7u3v9lt9cmvcs6s6ln26wrxggh7p7su3c04l I genuinely wonder how many people have ever received any formal training in logic and cognitive biases.  These are the tricks they use to use to control the mind.  If the algorithms can learn, so can we.


Dude, stop saying yes and what are you saying yes to what are you saying yes to me you keep saying yes yes what are you saying it to and what about and what are you trying to get me to agree with you? nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m


Assuming nostr is just the platform! Which app do you use? Which algorithm you plugged to say which content comes up?
