Nostr enables us to choose our own algorithms and then to use those algorithms to discover both people and content. The best way to do this is to follow more Nostriches and engage and interact with them. No one is going to make you be seen or heard. You will have to do this for yourself.


It’s a step by step process for some people as some are a little shy.


I'm still not convinced by this strategy of 'just follow more' cos a lot is just more of the same. More people taking about the price of bitcoin, saying the slogans or whatnot. I think potentially accelerating leaving. Follow more hashtags (and eventually) feeds, I think I could agree with that tho. Although hashtags are prone to spam. It's a tricky one innit.


I also think the reality is that especially coming from other social media (mostly thinking of twitter), there isn't really much Other (non-bitcoin) content here. And following more people isn't going to help that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. You're effectively likely to just be following more bitcoin 'content' (slogans) lol.


The last one is the hard part though!
I think a good relay setup is important too.


It's okay! I have a presentation on all of this for Riga!


Soon it won't matter when all major clients are using the new and improved outbox relay model. But for now, yes, relay choices are important!


It sounds like you need to follow more people 🤣 I'm serious. If you want diverse connections then you need to try to find them. We do have some outliers out there beyond Bitcoiners.


talk to new people who perhaps follow 16 profiles, follow the other 8 too 😅


We have a lot of art, music, and permaculture content too.


All noobies could explore following more people. I truly believe following 1000 people gets you the most out of your Nostr feeds.


Will miss you 😭😭😭


Yes. There is a lot of “the same” here despite different people saying it. I think following more hashtags is a great idea.


look at weak networks... 🐇


I am doing this now and are getting to read more of what I want.

I think is so correct way in using #Nostr


Proof of work in Nostr as well….gotta love it


Followed :) #Bitcoin & #Nostr are  beacons of hope in an increasingly dark and fractured world.
I’m  grateful to have fallen down the rabbit hole.


🙋♂ I’m certainly pro bitcoin but rarely post about it. I agree with what someone said about hashtags - and then add them to your feed (is using nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 )


I tend to find myself replying to other folks more so than posting my own thoughts.. Like now..

Big, if true.


Thanks for the insight


Are there any algorithms to opt into / purchase? Basically it’s implemented by the client currently? Or can you point a client at a repay to get a different algo?

Seems like a fun side project to make some algorithms.


I’m working on it


Working on it


Where can I choose algorithms?
