This presentation from the founder of Patreon could inspire many of us in the Nostr community.
A shift is happening. Not only on the Internet but in the world.
It’s time to shift from the outer world to the inner world, from reach to depth of connection, from doing something that matters to others to doing something that matters to you and your local community.
Platforms that displaced others never did it on the same paradigm. Nostr doesn’t need to replace Twitter. It needs to enable something new, something different. Replacing Twitter will be a natural byproduct. Not the product.
How could we use Nostr to enable creators to reach their 1000 true fans?
How could we create a bazar with millions of local shops that care about servicing 1000 people, not one million people?
After discussing with dk (npub1kuy…kdj8) the other day, we talked about whether the problem of a global username was still relevant in this new world.
Your last name was invented by the nation state. And your global unique username by this idea that you had to build a global audience. But what if you don’t? Local shops only need a unique name in their locality.
This is a good example of a design decision that sets the tone, that defines who we are, how we are different, how we are not playing the same game.
Anyway, here is an invitation to slow down. Do less tweets, more long posts, take the time to think. Take the time to build stuff that will last 200 years. We need more human beings, less human doing.
