 People often ask me "is it worth investing my time in nostr?"

IDK IS IT WORTH BREAKING YOUR FUCKING CHAINS AND FIGHTING FOR A BETTER INTERNET AND AGAINST THE SURVEILLANCE AND PROPAGANDA MACHINE FOR THE SAKE OUR KIDS AND ALL GENERATIONS TO COME?
 
 "But my followers..."  
 I have never liked this term. I don't need people who follow me. I want to connect and exchange with people. Can we create a new term for nostr? 
 It's more of an audience anyway 
 Love that 😏😅 
 hive maybe? 
 Zap!⚡️ 
 I can't leave Xitter simply because a lot of interesting sources aren't on nostr yet 🤷‍♂️ 
 That sounds like my subconscious thoughts all day long…

 Share this with everyone you care about.

 NO-BRAINER. By the way. Can't zap you 
 Maybe he’s only accepting eNuts now?? 
 Yes. You're right. 
 It's working again. Zapping him is working again. 
 Nostr is more like data available to all instead of data available to platform so surveillance might be even worse. On the other hand there is no need to have KYC so that makes it easy better for users. 
 I LIKE THIS NEW TREND OF SHOUTING ON NOSTR LIKE AN AUTISTIC PLEB 
 Now imagine someone asking “is it worth it investing my time in X?” 
 🫡 
 i wonder how those people normally see "investment of time" in social media, maybe people that use it as promotional outlet only? i would guess for most it's not about investment but "is it fun or not" 
 Fight on brother! 
 Tal cual! 🏴🎯

 Is it, anon, is it? 😄 
 Sometimes I wonder why do this for free when the enemy got paid to do the exactly opposite.

 Dude chill 😎 
 💯 
 This sounds like a lot of work. Someone do this for me please.

 The level of addiction is real. 
 It's the only place I hang out now (or lurk). And I love it here

 YES GODAMMIT YES!!!!! 
 Channeling his inner @ODELL 
 Investing? They must be shitcoiners… 
 Amen 
 The network effect on Nostr is minimal atm, therefore people prefer twitter still.
Anyone aware of a tool that automatically posts on twitter and nostr?
 
 I am not sure if you got it but they were asking if they would benefit FINANCIALLY from it 
 Nah, man. Not worth it. 

Gonna pass. I like slavery and surveillance state 
 Hail to all the Nostriches here building a better internet 🤙✨💜 
 LOVE YOU MAN!

 likely illegal. 
 YES 
 There is Linux and vpn for that!😉 
 If I had to sum it up in one word: worthwhile. As a user who’s been here for five months, I’ve learned a lot, and there’s still so much more to explore. Nostr truly stands out compared to other platforms where people spend their time. Huge thanks to the devs like @calle 👁️⚡👁️ for constantly improving this space and making it easier to use. 💜🫂 
 For the average normie the answer is, surprisingly, no. 

For un-brainwashed freedom folk, the answer is, where do I point my musket.

Decentralization's Dream

No single throne, no crown to claim,
A thousand voices, none the same.
In scattered nodes, the power lies,
Beyond the reach of watchful eyes.

A network vast, where all can stand,
No master’s rule, just code’s command.
In every hand, a piece, a say—
A world rebuilt in its own way.

 
 payment infrastructure doesn't work  
 i will fix it 
 big news soon

( stay tuned ) 
 Exactly. So many people just don’t care or think it’s a joke. 
 I'd say it goes much further than just the internet.

 YES IT IS!! Worth an all caps. The Cheese/Yarn kid has no love for the algorithm or the spying propaganda machine 🔥🔥🔥. And he's stacking sats and sticking it to the man. 
 Well said

 How to start 
 💯 
 The New P2P internet (built on layer three of bitcoin ) is almost finished . Call the operator and escape the centralized captured Internet. The largest conference of builders and developers is descending next week in Austin, Texas.

 I just imagined you shouting this at a not so informed person of your family. 🚀 

You are so right! 
 I wish that sentiment had saved Usenet. 
 Is it worth to work with pure internet? Yes

 nahhh not really 
 I mute all caps. Did I miss anything important? 
 Nostr seems to be much easier to send and receive money than any other system!! 
 And what's the answer? 
 Preach it! 🔥🔥🔥 
 EXACTLY! ❤️‍🔥 
 Amen
