It seems anytime I try to check out Mastodon it is always some negative political view or affiliation of why X, Y & Z is bad. Is this just what most people like boosting or is it a sign of botting to push negativity over the more positive headlines?
I do understand I can switch to any Mastodon instance I want and stick to a small community, however I like keeping up with trending topics in the world. Maybe the most popular accounts in the Mastodon community likes to rise up pitchforks every minute.
Lemmy used to be very tech savvy, but not repulsive. Cryptobros are repulsive (and not just because of the cryptocurrency shilling!). What's my incentive to stick around?
Like I said, someone got to break the ice. You don't want to do that and that is fine and I get it.
People need to join and create their little own corners on Nostr were you discuss other topics and maybe a rule in these corners will be no crypto shilling and not be repulsive. Eventually these corners will grow in size to were Nostr is not just crypto bros.
Or, far more likely, Nostr will remain a place for cryptobros. And that's fine. Keeps them out of my spaces.
I do hope nostr becomes the new twitter for everyone. And it does have a chance of that with the musk changes to twitter.
