This is spot on from calle (npub12rv…85vg)

We are going back to using the Internet as we once did … a place to just share ideas with like-minded individuals on places like Usenet

The whole bullshit of user-generated content … “sharing your life” in blogs and on social media is dying if not already dead. Fatigue has set in. I don’t want to know about your life or your opinions

I just want to know your real thoughts and ideas. I want to stay interested

#nostr is a great place for that

I'm not here on Nostr because I run away from Twitter. I'm here because I'm in search for an internet as it once used to be.

I'm a hacker who fucking hates that social media is in the hands of private companies. I remember using IRC and meeting likeminded anons online. I remember what the internet utopia felt like. People who didn't care what your name or status is, people who aren't interested in sharing their boring holiday pics with random strangers online. I'm not interested in what politicians and influencers have to say. I don't care about the latest mainstream trend that's going viral.

I want random weird interesting smart people around me who share their ideas in a free and open space that isn't controlled by anyone.

That's all I'm looking for. There aren't many such spaces on the internet.
