I keep seeing the "Nostr is dead" memeing and honestly, it feels like a portion of the Nostr userbase actually believes that it's dead or dying.
I don't know about them but I remember when the web was still pretty new. I was born just a little too late to remember its initial release but I remember when WWW 1.0 was still a novel concept. I was there during the days when social media was still based of forums, user boards and chat services. I remember when Facebook was something completely new.
Nostr feels like those days to me. It recaptures the magic of the net back when I was still a kid, except this time, the tech is built on rock-solid existing tech and the builders are some of the most creative and driven individuals I've encountered.
As some put it, we're still early. Nostr isn't even a decade old yet. Get involved: if you can't build tech on top of Nostr, tell people about it. Post content with some variety.
Make this space something that cannot be ignored.
