Huw on Nostr: Thinking about #nostr and growth and how we can fall into the pitfalls of old school ...
Thinking about #nostr and growth and how we can fall into the pitfalls of old school social media.
The likes of Facebook, Twitter, etc got to the size they did through unethical, addictive algorithms and backroom deals.
Nostr is not that. It’s organic and organic growth does not follow the trajectories of traditional social media.
We should be onboarding as many as we can but if they don’t hang around that’s fine.
Nostr shouldn’t need people chronically online to survive. It’s okay if people came back sporadically.
Value4value lies at the heart of this new age of social interaction online. When you’ve filled your cup, come and share it, let yourself be filled. When you need to take a step away, do it and come back when ready.
