 The majority of discussion on Nostr is about building new things, while on X it's about politics and problems with fiat. Nostr Chads vs X Clowns. 
 I preferred the culture here. 
 Positive building culture vs negative complaining culture  
 Super stressful times for them as they are sticking masking tape on top of glue on top of duct tape. I definitely empathize with their concerns on what they can do next. 

Luckily, we’re building on strong and sturdy foundations here, and I look forward to them finding out about these benefits. 
 Shitting on fiat is fun 
However yea like Jeff b says 
Don’t spend any time yelling at the old system 

Just start fresh in the new system 

Idk something like that

But real talk I have no idea what’s happening in the world outside of nostr 

I live here 
 Shitting on fiat is boring. We all know it's shit. Move on. 
 Yea 
 I’m so glad I left X years ago 🫂 
 Yeah the algo optimising for outrage is not good for mental health 
 Welcome to the early internet before society was high-jacked with dopamine injected engagement farming. 😜 
 It makes me sad just to go there. I use it for work, managing a company account, but on the personal side there’s nothing left that I can enjoy. I don’t want to talk to anyone there. 
 Yeah it's really hard to open X and try to be a positive signal that gets drowned out by negative, repetitive noise. 
 Enjoyed your Plebchain episode with Miljan discussing this! Think he mentioned once we get to choose our own algos it becomes harder to game and creators will optimise for creating high quality content as opposed to engagement farming. Can't wait for the day this becomes the norm.  
 We’re going to take the power back. With shakas, hugs and interoperable social graphs. 😀 
 Thanks for the Zap 🤠 
 good afternoon  
 Yes, I feel much happier ever since I deleted Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. I knew I would be better off without them because I experienced the same health benefits years before when I stopped watching corporate news. 
 Lol theres just no engagement to farm here....yet 
 poo poo pee pee 
 That's why Im bored as shit here
 
 Literally nothing forcing you  to use this 
 Same with you Honey
Go pura vida someone elses ass. 
 I use it by choice, when I get bored I exit out 
 It will be interesting when they finely decide to go after us.... were next folks toughen up!
