 On nostr if someone follows you they will probably see your posts if they are on nostr poking around. Beyond that clickbait isn’t incentivized on nostr. 

X has a few problems right now that aren’t obvious to everyone but if left unattended will snowball out of control. 

Conversation over clickbait. Use nostr. https://i.nostr.build/EnLOx.jpg

 This is not my experience of X. After Musk took over it is a new and fresh place where debate about topics like climate and gender madness is permitted. But maybe that is the thing she doesn’t like?

Her and her ilk would not have survived Yahoo chat rooms.

 Folks choose to follow people to see their content. She’s pointing out an obvious problem with the algorithm.

 Untils ran by all of us, the trend will continue. No different than what we want for Bitcoin as the world's monetary platform; lnfrastructure for free speech and dialogue exchange.

 On #nostr you think for yourself.
On Xitter Elon thinks for you.

 Authenticity is disincentivised & scarce over there. 

People crave it but not as much as they crave the drama.
