Even though I'm stuck with throttled bandwidth until we get Internet connected at home, I log into Nostr daily. It's certainly a different experience. It feels like I'm looking through a small portal window, and putting my note into a pneumatic tube, knowing that I won't see replies or reactions until I can get back inside some day.

It takes several minutes to load my feed, and the same posts from six days ago load first. After several more minutes, I'll get yesterdays notes, but only with blurred images, and replies to the note (other than the replies by OP) are non-existent.

Sometimes my feed is missing people entirely, as I will see their posts the next day between posts that I've already read.

Sometimes waiting doesn't even give me anything. With no indicator, it's a guessing game as to when to make another attempt at loading my feed.
