 I am tempted to leave nostr entirely, i sort of settled with using nostr very sparingly during a 'bullmarket', and not at all when there are a few % pump days. (There's no point, I know what nostr is saying without opening it).

My twitter feed is on the whole much better all round, but certainly during biggish price moves up, and down. (The only person on my twitter feed talking about the price of bitcoin pumping is jay dyer lol). 
 The problem is that it's too difficult to build "bubbles" on here. On Twitter, I see a completely different feed from most of the Bitcoiners: full of modest fashion, theology, German politics, economics, etc.

It was actually interesting to those people, when I occasionally wrote something about Bitcoin because they didn't see that much. On here, I avoid writing about it, as I feel like I'm just adding to the noise, and I'm obviously not drinking the kool-aid hard enough to please the really religious that dominate, so my comments always fill up with The Hyperventilating And Hysterical.

I'm like a normie Bitcoiner. Nondenominational Bitcoiner. Also, I'm poor. Nobody wants to hear from poor Bitcoiners. 😅 Theoretically, we don't actually exist. In reality, we're the vast majority. 
 I think a lot of the post Actually About Bitcoin get lost in the Slogans About Bitcoin and posts About The Price of Bitcoin. Which is why some people mute the word(s) on nostr, when there is no real need to do this on twitter, even if your twitter feed I s a bit bitcointwitter bubble.

Lack of subculture bubbles, definitely. Lack of mechanisms to foster subcultures thriving here and little or no reach to attract other subcultures here in the first place.

But mostly no one cares cos they want bitcointwitter2, and they have it too lol.
