Noticed that I feel much better on nostr than Twitter. Much of that has to do with Twitter’s over-optimized tweets and negativity. But a large part of it is likely because I no longer have to focus on follower count.

On nostr followers are super inaccurate and depend on your relays so you never really know what’s the right number. Combined with the fact that Damus hides this by default, my mind no longer has to wander into that part of the app. I simply could care less now.

I mean, I didn’t care before either, but somehow it was always in the back of my mind.

If it were up to me I’d remove this metric entirely but even as is it’s much better.

Here I don’t need to pick words. Just say what’s on my mind and people either agree or don’t. No big deal. No algo, no punishment for stupid notes. Get blocked or don’t - fair deal.
