I've been watching the TikTok ban happen and taking note of what people say they will miss about the app in hopes Nostr can learn from it:
1. The algorithm's ability to find a community where you belong, often based on shared topics of interest ( Ditto (nprofile…r5rp)?)
2. The way that the comments section is actually enjoyable (and funny!) compared to other apps where the comments are more often mean
3. The content feeling more "authentic" and less polished and perfect than apps like Instagram, again with a focus on the humor of the creators and willing to be "weird"
4. Feeling like it was easier to monetize on TikTok than other apps (Zaps can help with that!)
Unfortunately I saw practically ZERO discussion of Nostr as an alternative to TikTok, so I don't know how many refugees we will be able to absorb. I hope we can make a group effort to welcome those we meet and maybe do some outreach as well!
There is an obvious argument for how Nostr solves the problems that allowed this act of government censorship to happen, we just need to get that story out there! 💜
