 If you still have X, get on there and tell them what they’re missing! nostr:note105nzptfal3qedqv4vqa50xa5ap5kt392zj9cfsytzapu6askjplqjwka80 
 twitter was the last bastion of real private discourse in a sea of counterintelligence funded projects like Facebook and Tiktok and Reddit. The FBI had almost completely coopted it, and that wasn't still enough, all those pesky bitcoiners wouldn't go away, nor would the memers and shitposters, misesians and randians and state disrespecters.

so they brought in their muscle, mister "i'm rich because of government programs but pretend i'm a genius and pretend i'm defending free speech while trying to implement my X bank and become the WeChat of the West" elon musk, to slaughter it completely.

no surprise that one of the few dissenting voices, one of the founders of twitter, is now 100% bitcoin and actively funding nostr development.

anyone who is still on twitter and isn't already on nostr is lost.

if they missed those who departed for greener pastures, they'd be here too.

i jumped ship shortly after musk showed up because the noise level went all the way to Facebook level 11 as soon as he started his "cleaning up" of the algorithm.
