 Who do you think will be the first/next big name non-bitcoiner joining nostr?

#nostr 
 Damn true lol 
 I just realized that I could revive my Twitter stream api social graph project here on #nostr which I had to stop developing when Elon put the api behind paywall 🤔 
 I like can’t even use twitter on the subway because the algo feeds me such incendiary things (f... 
 Lol same here 
 Wow, thanks everyone for warm welcoming and zaps! Didn't expect this many people to react 🙏I will be posting  about tech and pics of my cats 🐱🤙 
 Sparkling water is insufferable.

The amount of times I accidentally drank it in Europe has only ... 
 Try Borjomi 😂 
 #nostr I have some good news and I will be honest with you guys. So I was so addicted to soda and... 
 Try carbonated water next time you feel like drinking soda. Helped with my addiction 😅 
 Hello, I'm a developer from Finland and joined few days ago. I'm quite impressed about nostr and impact it could have on how we approach social media, privacy and censorship. I'm getting similar vibes when Bitcoin first clicked for me.

 Morjesta! Ei taida ihan hirveästi olla vielä suomalaisia täällä? 
 I do full-stack development :) Currently working with react, typescript, scala and aws! 
 Thank you awesome! 
 Haha no but it seems like a good option if you want to use something else than React 🐱 
 Kiitos! Awesome that you are visiting Helsinki :) You should go to sauna if you are in Finland. Löyly is quite popular and cool. If you want old school experience visit Kotiharjun sauna! 
 Hyvää kiitos! 😎 
 Looking for good blogs and tutorials for building bots for nostr. I have few project ideas that could be useful.

 Nice 👍 I'll check it out :)  
 Good morning #Bitcoin community (I have no followers so not sure if I’ll get a reply 😆). I... 
 Nothing specific but What Bitcoin Did is having interesting guests lately. Also if you have not listened to Gloria Zhao interview there I highly recommend it.  
 We need more empathy. I hope nostr can be a tool for that. Legacy social media companies use algorithms to create polarization among us and reduce empathy between people who have different ideas about life and politics. Let's try to change that.

 Nostr is having a growth spurt right now.

As censorship and state violence against freedom of sp... 
 Agreed. I would add that it's not just state but the CEOs as well. People don't like how much Zuckerberg and Musk have power on enforcing rules on speech. Doesn't matter if it's deliberate or pressure from state, investors etc. 
 Hey, nostr.

I'm curious if this really has the potential to win over x, can it really overpower ... 
 X is becoming new Facebook imo. Yes there will be still people around but innovative and engaging people will eventually migrate away to better alternatives. This creates hype and fomo. 
 First realization after using nostr. Ads on Twitter/X are now more annoying where they embed them along posts and it takes you a short moment to realize you are reading an ad.

#nostr 
 What are the best talks, blogs, repos etc to start learning about the tech side of nostr?

 Just watched your talk and really enjoyed it! I'm still new to nostr and learning and exploring the ecosystem. 
 hello world
