Nuh on Nostr: Trying to build the "decentralised digital marketplace of ideas" have always been ...

Trying to build the "decentralised digital marketplace of ideas" have always been futile, but now it is not even worthwhile even if possible. It is back to direct messaging and private groups and tightly moderated forums. None of which requires relays or indexers, and would be better served with good old email, with slight marginal optional upgrades, like sovereign identity.

Make sure you take your existing internet friends contacts now before it is too late. Mine will always be listed on Nuh.dev, and eventually on an MNS domain too.

I think we are in the middle of a great reset in the idea of internet friends.

Why would you write a LinkedIn post if only AI is reading it? Why would post a TikTok, but AI is taking your idea and making it more appealing and steal all your credit? Why would you spread your knowledge nobody but AI will read it? Why would you write a book, if nobody but AI reads it?

I don't know most of you personally. I only know you are human because our connection predates AI.

New users, though, don't have that certainty. For them anyone can be an AI. And that drives them away.

We need to recalibrate the point of having internet friends.

And, with so much junk throw at us for the past 20 years, I don't know what the point is anymore. 🤔
