Part of what made me quit Twitter was seeing the same content regurgitated over and over, dressed up slightly different to pass as unique.
People were basically competing for audiences and trying to build themselves up as some authority on a subject.
The thing is, you can often tell who is legit and who doesn't know wtf they are talking about, and more often than not it's not the people who are getting the reactions. The real deal folks are usually quiet, nuanced and mind their own business. The loud mouths dumb everything down to the common denominator and build up their audiences.
Well, I got tired of it. I don't know if this is inevitable on nostr as well, but I suspect we'll succumb to the same issues - as more people join and share their knowledge, we'll see the same content repeated over and over.
