 Yeah I think realistically it’s not wise to go all in on any of these platforms until either of them become a lot more profitable. 

My best month on Nostr was about $150. Encouraging of course but I’d need $4k a month at least to do the work I wanna do - travel + tell on the ground stories. 

It’s not a complaint and I hope this doesn’t come across entitled, it’s just the reality. 

Nostr is getting better and better for creators but it’s still small and cliquey while the UX is still not quite there. 

It’s cool seeing it improve and that’s part of why I use it more and more. 

I’ve started on TikTok seriously this year and it’s fascinating seeing how that pans out. I’m also gunning Youtube shorts. 

Overall I’m trying to get people interested in bitcoin while testing my own beliefs. Part of that requires meeting people where they are. Nostr is great but gotta keep things in perspective. 

I’ll take your advice though, thank you. The first thing I wanna action is share every piece of content a few hours earlier on here than on other platforms. 

Dyou know if Nostr has a scheduler? Like youtube does? 
 Appreciate you Joe. We gotta have a beer in Madeira.

You can schedule notes with shipyard.pub or nostrit.com both are from @PABLOF7z

 
 On a related note, hey @zach could you add scheduled video publishing to flare.pub? 
 Shipyard works as a DVM now too; I haven't finalized setting it up, but making this happen from any client that wants to support it will soon be completely trivial 
 Added to the list! 
 this is why nostr is awesome haha

Which is the best desktop app to use for this then? Sorry — i basically use damus on my phone all day and occasionally Iris on my desktop.
Yes please to beers in Maderia!
 
 Lume and Gossip decent native desktop apps. I mostly use Iris/Snort or Primal on the web. 
 Keep pushing Joel, it's good to spread the voice to more platforms possible, since the goal is that, reaching more possible people with your message.
Like Derek said anyway I too believe you would have benefit immensly more being more actice in the first part of 23 ans ongoing on #nostr.. But it's never too late! I am sure 24 will be lit for your here just with you being a bit more active. Pura Vida Joel! 🤙🍀
