 Who knows how real either number is, but notably I crossed 70k followers here on Nostr a couple days before I touched 700k on Twitter.

 Where do you see that number? On Damus i never see anyone with more than 2k followers lol.
Not that it matters… 😝 
 Primal. A lot of clients don’t seem to load many client numbers. 
 Idk why but Amethyst says that i have 23 more Follower than Primal displays 
 Probably based on which relays you have, or what NIPs they support, or what the clients implement.

Beyond my pay grade in any case. 
 Pretty sure there’s 700k fake Lyn Alden accounts on Twitter too 
 That’s proof of work. Well
Done. 
 I just crossed the event horizon. Nostr followers > Twitter followers. No turning back. 😉  
 GM 😂 
 The one that requires a fuzzy, not always stable kind of distributed consensus is real. 
 🫡 awesome, Nostr keeps growing. 
 That’s an insane amount given the size of this platform 
 TIME has 19.3M followers. 1 day old posts get about 25k views

Followers on Twitter aren't trustworthy  
 How many followers do you have  
 Wen only Lyn Nostr? 
 With the bot count over there? Probably equivalent.

Meanwhile, Twitter just hit 70,000 Lyn Alden accounts. 
 Web of Trust NIP should solve this problem in Nostr.
