Yah, I just think those methods were ALWAYS intellectually lazy. 

Especially with the growth of AI, as you are certainly aware, we need to return to old school methods of determining credibility. 

You didnt gain credibility through linking yourself to some past life, you built it through work. Posting. Frog talk. Participating. That’s the way. 

 I think we’re both right in our own ways because if maybe I had built something in my past life it could’ve contributed in a way like it did for those that I followed bc of their past lives, either way agreed. It is the way 🫡 

 Yah but if you had a following you’d just post your npub on your old social media and people would… follow you to nostr :-) 

 3k followers and maybe 5 actually followed me here 🤣 

 Sounds like a great ratio! 

I doubt @jack's was much better ;-) 

 Great ratio indeed! 

He brought me here n for that I’ll forever be grateful amongst other contribution’s 🫂
