 GM @jfschaff 🫂 
 Don’t know you willing to find out✌️Followed. 
 Your post is creating a lot of discussion.
Added to the https://nostraco.in/hot feed 
 Looking at you. #plebchain 
 Nope, can see it just fine.
idk what's up with bluesky tho. 
 People generally don’t stfu and have too too much to say.
Follow a thousand people for active timeline 
 What we looking at? 
 See what? 
 blue what ⁉ 
 I see you. 👀  
 Yes. Follow more people. 
 👀 
 Some ghosts, some live wires, all seeking sovereignty! 
 This place is Alive! 
 Death is relative to the amount of people you follow and engage with. I have never seen a more lively social experience before. Nostr is always on fire, for me. 
 Blows Twitter out of the water for signal vs. noise. 
 100% 
 I am not dead Jeff 
 Can confirm. You are not dead. Me on the other hand... 🫠💀 
 Death has no hand for you as you are part of the universe and it you. 
 🐶🐾🫂👁️👃👁️ 
 follow plebs bruh. ideally anyone who comments. 
 My feed is always super active 24/7 
 What’s up mf 
 Nostr sky is just the beginning baby ✌️ 
 Welcome! It’s a lively community here. 

If you would like any help connecting a wallet to receive zaps, I know the #plebchain would be delighted to assist ⚡️🤙 
 👋 
 Dead for sure....
Stay away.
🤣💜🫂 
 I saw blue sky today… I went outside!

Welcome to nostr! 
 what's up nerd 
 oh, you've uncovered me 
 Was bluesky ever alive tho? 
 Indeed 😂 
 Bunch of ne romances at bluesky trying to resuscitate a dead bird 🐦  
 Necromancers* 
 I get more engagement here in a week than I have ever had in my many years on Twitter combined.
And that's including Twitter bots. 
 all i get on twitter are fake women following me 😭 
 Hahaha same with me.
I promise I'm not a fake woman!  
 Loud and clear. 
 Dead suggests once living 😉

Nostr on the other hand is very very alive. 

Remember there isn't an algorithm. Engagement on your notes is directly related to who's feeds you end up in. On Nostr that means they have to either follow you directly or follow a hashtag you've added to your note. 

It's a different model, but a MUCH healthier model. Just takes a little time to get traction.  
 Or someone reposts your note* forgot that one. Also very important.  
 That’s exactly how twitter used to work no?

And ultimately what none of my real life friends understood. 

“Why would I follow stranger?!” 
 thanks 🙏 i had no idea what the algorithm was  
 Could be a bad connection. Try hanging up and dialing again. 
 🌿👀🌿 
 never heard of blue sky. 
 👋 
 Bienvenue, Jeff ! 
 see what? 
 see what? 
 Never been there 🤷 
 i see you though 🤔 
 We are here, building.  
 @jack is here! 
 funny that he is here more often than on bs 
 Aren’t you entertained?! 
 We sees ya  
 You need to set up Lightning wallet 
 will do 🫡 
 Def not dead! Lots going on, as long as you follow enough people that are engaging. 
 We are all here Jeff! 
 What's a skyblue? 
 see what? 
 I see this! How dead is dead? 
 Btw, can't zap you! 
 sorry i'm really new here, i don't get the zap thing yet... 
 We are all HERE!

#Nostr needs a soul search, but it will stay and move on.  
 🖐 
 reactions to this is crazy, thank you all for the warm welcome 🙏

nice thing about an open protocol is that, contrary to companies and platforms, it can never disappear. once in the wild it can just evolve

 Welcome to your new obsession! #nostr 
 See what? 
 using it right now

how do people feel about entering their private keys in many apps? i don't see how this can work in the long run... 
 Can't recall the name of a mobile app (I believe there is one...), but afaik for desktop nsecbunker solves that problem:
