Tim Bouma on Nostr: The thing I realized is that (hidden or visible) hierarchy causes zero-sum ...
The thing I realized is that (hidden or visible) hierarchy causes zero-sum competition. That why you see the cutthroat competition in the normal marketplace because everyone is taking away from each other.
In contrast, #nostr is promoting unity without hierarchy. You’ll find other people who do things differently/better than you - that’s ok - you just figure out a different way to contribute to the unity.
No hierarchy.
No reason to zero-sum each other.
Let’s keep it that way.
This is #nostr
