All other social media now is just the places I go looking for things to share on #Nostr 🤣
Social has become the dominant mode by which we experience the internet. Its purpose is to filter information through our social tribes. Which is a GREAT thing, not a bad one as many assume.
The bad part is that it has been owned by platforms, rather than the user. It always necessitated a protocol from the beginning, and was never going to work otherwise. But now seeing its potential and that it’s completely open and permissionless to build on, this is going to change the entire web from top to bottom.
I now have over 4,600 notes. Don’t underestimate the value of building a foundation in this place, because we will be able to use it for a million things that were never possible on closed, centralized systems.
Slow and steady wins the race.
