Man it's the opposite in most cases from my experience, I never got any attention on X or Instagram when I was there, I had like 2200 follows on X and nobody ever replied to me at all or cared I was even there. When I left X nobody missed me, I left Nostr for just like a week once and when I came back I saw people asking where I was and happy I was back, do you think you'd get this anywhere else? Heck no. And I only have half the follows here I had on X, most of them were bots.
quoting nevent1q…c92aI really don't get the people that complain that they don't get followers on Nostr because there is no algorithm.
I never got any followers in any of these platforms with algorithms (even though I used them actively for years), except when by some unexplicable hit of luck some people started using @lntxbot on Telegram and by word-of-mouth it got to Alex Bosworth and he mentioned it on tweet and then my follower count slowly grew from 50 to like 5000 over a 3-year period.
Is there a magic trick that allows you to go from 0 to 100000 by gaming the algorithm these days and then scam your followers a high-ticket course about how to get followers and become a millionaire? Or what are these people talking about? Why do they even want followers in the first place?
