They enforce narrative hard. I was following along one thread about California not allowing parents to be told about their kids changing gender. Every negative comment would disappear and the user banned.

I’m thinking it’s partly a problem with the incentive system the fediverse creates. The type of person that wants that kinda admin power. It’s just usually not a healthy type of person.

I think reducing their power with technology like nostr is important but ultimately we need healthier incentives to participate.

Handing out Bitcoin is a decent idea. If people would just shut the fuck up about Bitcoin the rest of the time

I don’t see at all how it’s one of our largest strength. It’s a constant source of conflict. Places like Japan can really focus on their society and not have whole cities brought to the grown because a white cop killed a black person.

Nor do they have gangs of “insert color” people beating the shit out of Japanese youth.

Any time you add a element of diversity it’s going to increase conflict . So it should be for good reason every time.

In America it’s always been about cheap labor.

I love that I can learn a language and practice it in America because we have so many immigrants but it’s kinda crazy to think it’s our greatest strength.

That would be our natural resources and freedom loving constitution if you asked me.

Yeah you can search up npubs in basically any client. You can just search up Kapow’s npub npub1qprptnnuwnqc6h6wxc2q07rfwcmj7cfc6g4r5dgnlkxaysmpr0mqc5365p To get his profile to follow. I have a chat a community with folks from here but both are pretty spamy lately while I test some bots out.

Got it. I see you

What’s your public key? Starts with npub

Weak. Needs to do squats, pushups and stop complaining.

I’m seeing some stuff from there

More likely there is some missing authentication token. I bet when you login to minds it generates a token and on each websocket request sends that over and it only accepts connections that have that token.

In others words it’s probably reserved for minds users and so is basically useless and serves no purpose but for them to virtue signal.

Yeah the lawsuit they are filing did have a pedo in it and that’s weird.

Watching. He called Tucker Carlson and Candice owens mainstream media. Which is given that tucker is only on twitter seems kinda silly and Candice just isn’t popular enough to be considered mainstream. But i’ll watch the rest and see

I don’t see any data when I scan wss://relay.minds.com/nostr/v1/ws for recent events of kind 0 or 1. It’s like it’s not being used at all.

It takes like a year of full time work to make a reddit app. Like a decent one. It will come but not quickly. The ones that came out are pretty decent for how quick they. Came out. And they are getting better.

I can’t connect to their relay. I guess they made it private somehow

No more like be on nostr and get events from minds through the fediverse nostr bridge

Idk. I’ve not even found that. I was thinking going the other way

Not hosting this is just my wallet. I guess because I’m missing some google service on grapheneOS

I’m the one been hyping nostr hard but it’s not perfect for me either. Eats the shit out of my mobile data. I think that is because you pull from so many different relays it’s like running 15 sites at the same time. That is a problem. It’s solvable with compromises.

I’m the opposite. I can receive sats but can’t send them. https://www.nostrchat.io/channel/08642dad6729819cc79650d18b93c5c913362f17f0160b57bc3603345d6658e3

I think lemmy will end up breaking off into so many echo Chambers, ppl will realize the farce of what the fediverse claims to be and go right back to reddit.

I had really hoped that instances that allowed more wide and varied opinions would naturally grow in size to be the largest. Instead de-federation has continue to cut and slice and separate anyone and everyone. It will never be able to compete with large centralize services like that.
