You can build a new world. Burn the boats.
quoting note13sy…mzzkI can understand people not abandoning traditional social networks where they’ve made big investments of time & energy to build an audience…
BUT I cannot understand refusing to invest ANY time and energy into a protocol that can’t be shut down.
It’s like buying a huge, expensive house, filling it with your favorite things, then putting candles in every room, but refusing to add a smoke detector or buy insurance. You’re just begging to lose everything.
Any investment made into a centralized service, ESPECIALLY one that is known for censoring people and shutting down accounts for no reason, should at MINIMUM require an equal investment into a decentralized alternative.
If everyone who was aware of the problem did this, #Nostr wins.
