I've actually decided tonight to give up on #nostr I guess it's a 'it's not you it's me' moment. I mean I've genuinely tried and given it plenty of time. Sure I've probably made mistakes or maybe just have a shit personality I guess. Either way I've never found my people or friends or even had any good two way exchanges in depth on a topic.
I wish the project well as I love the concept (just couldn't make it work for me). Peace.

I guess that's one man's opinion. Respect your right to it.
I would just say this:
1. Elon does not understand money at all so he is welcomed to fuck around and find out.
2. Jack Dorsey lost control of Twitter well before he exited as CEO. He learnt some painful lessons.
3. Bitcoin cannot fight for privacy from the base layer of the protocol. The strategy on that front is clear.
4. We have to welcome our enemies (wall st) to #bitcoin otherwise the project fails before it barely has started.
5. There is plenty of critical and adversarial thinking about Bitcoin happening.
Just another man's 2 cents.

Each bull run is unique yet broadly the same.
However when it comes to the quintessential signal of the 'staters gun' to a bull run look no further than for repetition of the following:
"This time feels different"
For at this point you are truly amongst the euphoria and will need to ground yourself in some way, shape or form.

I agree with your point. Third parties must have no control. However the real demons at play here when we are in pursuit of 'truth' is ourselves. We are the most likely to want to revise our own history and for the purposes of truth we ought not allow that beyond mere moments after the note is signed.

Being able to tidy up a written thought for a few minutes after posting is entirely useful to every person, particularly given the dire state of predictive text engines.
However being able to delete, hide or manipulate speech well after the fact is a revision of history and a dark endeavour (something the legacy media has demonstrated beautifully since the birth of the internet).

They will spend several years building a major position. Then use the 5 eyes coordinated legislation cohort to promote a hard fork around OFAC rules to 'clean up' Bitcoin. There will be a huge coercive charm offensive at first to try to win over as much of the network as possible. Their hope will be to split the network in half. They will then go full Orwellian against the original time chain which will either result in a global guerrilla war or capitulation and victory for JP Morgan.

Well in many circumstances people who donate should not know the distribution percentages (and don't care). However on the backend all devs want a fair cut so maybe it's tied to the code commit ratio or something.
Then there is the other scenarios where the donators want donation distribution control at the front end. I can imagine this yielding higher donation rates in some cases. Good example might be for sporting teams. You want to reward the midfield and offence today but the defence was horrible so no sats for you!

So in this instance would my sars be equally distributed to each dev wallet. Or can you structure it from the devs side where dev1 did 0.25 of total release work so 25% of donated sats get channelled to his wallet automatically.

Think of them more as drowning people. The water is the fiat economy and inflation. They don't need a book (life jacket). They are too cold and tired to put it on in the water. They want you to do all the work, grab them by the hand and physically pull them into the boat. They need you to buy the Bitcoin for them, store it on their behalf and only contact them when they are rich. Otherwise they are so cold after 50 years of fiat that they would rather just close their eyes and sink to the bottom.

I meant P2P. I use those terms inter-operably when perhaps I shouldn't. The relevant factor for me is that payment occurs directly between relevant parties and settles at or very near the same time and this all occurs on a protocol that is semi decentralised.

Nostr can eat Google search via V4V model. Nostr can eat Apple Music and Spotify. Do you remember back in the day when YouTube had an element of open citizen journalism about. Nostr will be YouTube in a far better way.
All the private subscription media content platforms like medium, sub stack etc will get out competed by Nostr.
Most people underestimate the power of the Nostr/Bitcoin alliance.
The internet has been desperate for micropayment value for value (V4V) exchange since the late 90s. The whole reason we ended up with distorted revenue models like the selling of consumer traffic data is because there was no meaningful way to handle V4V at a micro scale.
Nostr also sits squarely outside the existing financial system. This is a huge advantage.
You could go on and on all day. Perhaps pick an industry you care about and let's discuss.

To the extent of my knowledge Nostr is a protocol and Twitter is a centralised platform. These are by no means the same thing.
True Nostr feels like a mimic of X however that is only true to the extent that it was the most obvious starting point for Nostr adoption.
Because Nostr natively entwines freedom of speech with micro payments backed by monetary truth (Bitcoin) then you have a protocol that can walk into any market suffering from abuse of power or restriction of innovation and disrupt it.

I'm not at all clear how this plays out in the physical realm over the next few decades but I'm 100% sure it's not going to be the way the most commonly held consensus view thinks right now.
We are going to have to be:
a) highly vigilant

c) move in decentralised coordination
d) sacrifice some things
