Oddbean new post about login | logout This post makes you sound as brainwashed on the pandemic as Bluesky users are on censorship. Nostr and Bluesky are both movements and neither are going anywhere. We need to be mentally ready to stay outnumbered by a bullshit version of "decentralization" for a long time.
Does my observation makes me sound brainwashed? 😂 How many resources are being devoted to brainwashing people on the differences between #nostr and Bluesky do you think?
At least 3 resources. It's not your observation, it's your reasoning that a social media user base's strength would be measured by meetup turnout during a pandemic.
What, “during a pandemic”? Nostr wasn’t around in 2020. Im sorry im really confused what you are talking about?
My initial observation was that you seemed brainwashed. Now that you're trying to brag to me about how brainwashed you are, as if it wasn't already my initial observation, I have another observation: you're not very bright.
Reset the context and tell me how many Edisons are required to install a lightbulb.
I asked an honest question. How you interpreted it as bragging and what on earth I would be bragging about in my previous note is beyond me. The fact that you can’t answer makes me assume you’re either retarded, or I’m talking to a 3B weight LLM or something.
It might also be a language barrier. But I don't think so. The challange to find out if you talk to a real person is a real thing. Same with video and sound material. The web of trust might help. But only if it doesn't turn into an echo chamber. Also, chatbots are much better in grammar then non-native speakers. It will take a while until they can impersonate us 😂
You're confusing everyone by insisting that the pandemic is ongoing.
Incorrect. You're confusing most people (not everyone) by insisting that the pandemic is over.
I agree with you ☝️ this Summer is going to be hell's gates loose, the MPOX cases surging around the globe, if followed by another wave of Covid infections, it's going to be biblical and I believe Zika will become a reality globaly, no more births, enter Artificial Intelligence and brain implants.
I should also say, your observation itself is noteworthy enough.
How many VCs are devoted to inflating user numbers to make their Quarterly report behind BlueSky? once the money dries up from artificial pumping, lets see who is still standing and working on it when there is no money to be seen... Remember nostr had no funding in the first few years of existence, and yet people were aggressively building on it like the world was gonna end tomorrow.
