I don't know what you want from me. 98% of network traffic from Nostr is spam and junk. You don't understand what this is about. I'm not particularly interested in Bitcoin payment stuff. Nostr is a Bitcoin nerd niche and will always remain so. Non-Bitcoin nerds don't want to know anything about Nostr because they use Bluesky or Mastodon. Spam and crap It is already being looped through to other networks by bridges. Mostr and chat servers do not make it any better. Free relays are not a problem because you do not have to use them. It is that simple.

However, 98% of the content generated is meaningless. The countless Hetzner servers (Hetzner is just one example; I will likely block their network range) that generate hello world chats and bots are also quite bothersome. The issue is that an almost infinite number of keys can be created without any reference.

I didn't say that I was interested in the number of followers. So why is the number displayed at the top center of the main bar if it's not important? New users, especially those who aren't familiar with Bitcoin, are put off by this. I've been following this since the beginning, but the network isn't growing; it seems to be stagnating.

#amethyst #asknostr Every time I start the app or click on my profile, I have a different number of followers, regardless of which relay settings I use!?
