My idea of the sovereign individual is that they free themselves from the vast majority of constraints - including bad habits in media use.

A stupid old habit is squinting at the number of followers, or even paying to be followed.

Is that supposed to boost self-esteem?

X is shit to the power of maxi-shit. Why ? One of the main reasons for this is precisely because a large number of users are keen to be followed.

Does it make a difference if I am on the platform for business purposes? As feedback, so to speak? Maybe.

Is Nostr about business for me? No.

And: in Nostr in particular, there are much more meaningful signs of reach than the number of followers.

So do I need a client who tempts me to stay stuck in old constraints? No.

Are there one or more clients who can help me break away from stupid old habits? Yes.

I know one: Gossip.

Does this feature (or the absence of it) cardinally change my UX? Yes.


peace of mind for all of you!
