Oddbean new post about login | logout What do you mean with struggle? Is it just that its taking time for adoption? Or is it more the capitalization of devs? From a distance it looks quite fast if I see what’s developed and used. Could easily be wrong 😇
Development is great. See my comment 10min ago to Lyn. Clarifies further. And the biggest area of struggle IMO is where nostr lives in people’s minds (outside of the regular crowd on here). It’s struggling to find a place. BlueSky, as shit as it is, found a place, and it’s very clear: “The Anti-X”. And it’s growing 10-20x the rate that nostr is, as a result
The people that still pay attention to msm aren't the ones going to come to nostr. I really don't care if all the bluesky people want to wall themselves off there in their echo chamber because they are the type that aren't swayed by truth, facts and logic anyway. They are the emotional, theoretical types. The value of nostr is here, it's real and that's all it needs to be. Like bitcoin up until about this year. Those who can see actual value will arrive. Those who can't are better left behind.
Sir, excuse me. Didn’t see the show more, almost wrote a better reply and got distracted. Thanks for replying. Being anti is definitely not going to get us what we want. As a nostr-newb, non dev, though ‘bitcoiner’ I can share the first needs and thought I had. Port the X posts/acc’s of the people I want to see the posts of. We could do this somewhat ‘en masse’. Strategically choose the accs you want to do first, automate porting over every post from them. After seeing your post I think we relieve much friction of just deleting X. And we make the beds for the owners of those accounts. Send them a message with “in case you get banned and lose all your content (and followers) we made you a backup”. Hopefully those people convert to actually using it when they see what’s possible. Still competing with X there but in a better way. Plenty of questions I have on feasibility but this is a need I had as an early user.
