Yea their criticism was their initial experience. And that’s fair, for what it is at least. Nostr/Damus was even less polished in 2022 when I started using it. So from my perspective Nostr, Damus, and all the other apps/clients, are amazing now compared to just a year and half ago. The progress has been astounding. But the criticisms, at least some of them, could give some guidance into things other new users may look for. Or at least what new users experience when they join. Nostr is a different animal than centralized social media in large part because it’s an entire ecosystem of apps and I think they completely missed the significance of that by trying only one app.

that note is not on the damus relay, so it's probably just in your local cache

I think addressing them is good and I’m sure you’ll do it in a more constructive way than I would 🤣💜

Good poll! I used to! My son has a sick one tho!

Best of luck to you all.

I just had a chat with nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s about this… ultimately it’s good that these podcasts are even trying Nostr. We need to educate them: and I’m here for it. All criticism leads to something good

The place was so beautiful, no matter where I positioned people, everything looked great. Next, I photographed one of the doctors. She was the first one ready for the photo session, so we started with her! We took the first two photos by the dental chair for a more thematic feel. https://i.nostr.build/bHz21oE0F53dR4NQ.jpg #photostr #photography #artstr #plebchain

We’ve built a nice little citadel out here. The call to create is never silent in my soul. https://image.nostr.build/7c22f3d0fe31bb1ef94fe840c0c5876ff40950d58e6bcc976e60a884f465711c.jpg

Keep hodling. Atas will be fine. Stay strong.

I’m going to address them one by one. Just for fun!

Tonight’s grocery puzzle.

When you generate a new bitcoin address, it only takes disk space on your own computer (like 500 bytes). It's like generating a new PGP private key, but less CPU intensive because it's ECC. The address space is effectively unlimited. It doesn't hurt anyone, so generate all you want.

Just use nostr, like even just a handful of the apps, and you’ll love it. Nostr’s critics are so shortsighted it’s laughable. nostr:note14a2j20vpyqd6z8fj83p3nut3v2kl0m6hw0qhl0fa68mhrtvcpmnsutjxcq
