NVK on Nostr: Brazil has 200,000,000 people, it's a country where ppl are heavily on facebook ...
Brazil has 200,000,000 people, it's a country where ppl are heavily on facebook (preciously on Orkut and ICQ), Brazilian society functions via WhatsApp. Even lawyers do stuff with you via WA.
Assuming this is real numbers, not removing bots and such, it's a tiny number for Brazil.
There is no point in looking at blue sky as somehow some example of someone doing something write.
I have never met a real life person who's active on that platform, I don't know anyone in Brazil who even heard about blue sky.
They are being smart about doing a fuck ton of PR about it to get North American users by having folks talk about them on Nostr 😂
Focus on Nostr, blue sky is irrelevant to the main platforms AND to our big picture.
Bluesky added 2 million new users in a week following Brazil's Twitter ban. That's wild.
Bluesky is seen as a Twitter alternative in the media. We often say that Nostr is more than a Twitter alternative, which it is, though right now that is the most popular use case. The media doesn't see it.
Even though Nostr was created for events just like those unfolding in Brazil, Nostr is still the underdog. Keep building.
