#introductions 
First time I heard about #Nostr I think it was about 1 yr ago on a nostr:npub1yn3hc8jmpj963h0zw49ullrrkkefn7qxf78mj29u7v2mn3yktuasx3mzt0 podcast with nostr:npub1qqqqqqqx2tj99mng5qgc07cgezv5jm95dj636x4qsq7svwkwmwnse3rfkq, nostr:npub1v3tgrwwsv7c6xckyhm5dmluc05jxd4yeqhpxew87chn0kua0tjzqc6yvjh, nostr:npub1qqqqqqyz0la2jjl752yv8h7wgs3v098mh9nztd4nr6gynaef6uqqt0n47m and nostr:npub107jk7htfv243u0x5ynn43scq9wrxtaasmrwwa8lfu2ydwag6cx2quqncxg  but I did not pay too much attention. 

FIRST ATTEMPT 
Months later Luna recorded a new podcast with nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft then I  installed Damus, spent a couple of hours, got zero engagement because I was silent and didn't knew what to do and the X or telegram users I was looking for, well, they only had like a couple of notes, kinda hello world and they left soon. 

SECOND APPROACH 
A few weeks ago I switched from ios to #grapheneOS and told myself OK let's try again anciano (means old man in spanish, that's how my daughter and teenager son call me) This time I installed #Amethyst, broke my silence, forgot my rush, started following dozens of active users, found some useful hashtags, liked notes, sent and received some little #zaps and then I just got trapped here.
CONCLUSION 
If you're new to this Nostr deep rabbit hole (just like me just a few weeks ago) don't be lazy, keep in mind there's no algo, be patient and open minded, write notes, like and repost notes, use hashtags, zap ppl and enjoy the community sweet ambience and freedom speech.
