When I post on X, I know my posts are downgraded in the algo.

First, I use VPNs (this is obvious).

Second, I’m a French-Canadian born, American-raised guy in Austria. I tweet about too many things across cultures and in different languages. Advertisers don’t like this.

Third, I work in public policy, and often have political posts that aren’t usually sensationalist (ie. nuance).

Fourth, I post a lot of my own writing that hosted elsewhere, mainly columns and op-eds I publish in other news outlets, newspapers, etc.

Fifth, I post about Bitcoin and how’s there no second best crypto asset.

On nostr, though, I’m judged not by algos, but by plebs. When I post videos, content, or long-form articles via NIP 23, I know that any interaction or sats I get will be the result of what I publish, and not what audience the algo determines I should be in front of.

I love this, appreciate this, and I grow more bullish everyday. The growth of clients, the interoperability of the protocol, and the ability to instantly connect my own thoughts and content to value are amazing.

Long Life Nostr.
