Tyler Burns on Nostr: I do think a large part of the negatives that come from social media is the virality ...
I do think a large part of the negatives that come from social media is the virality and algorithimic feeds that keep people scrolling. It generally takes advantage of some of human behavior's biggest weaknesses. There is an insatiable mindset when it comes to posting and scrolling feeds that I feel social media today takes advantage of and people lose their mindfulness as a result.
Back when social media was really just your circle of friends and that was it, things weren't as bad and Nostr reminds me a lot of that time period. Whether it stays that way will remain to be seen.
