With all the hype surrounding X Money's beta release and Strike's full availability, it's time to reduce amount of people I follow. Since the goal of the "Western Everything App," I have tried to stick to the following: Only follow people I would be comfortable tipping. This "limits" my enjoyment of social media, but it's an aspect of the experience I want.
I like that it adds an extra level of engagement to the standard reply/like/repost formula, which has become stale. That's why I like Nostr so much. When someone I follow posts something that resonates with me, I can tip them a couple of dollars to show my appreciation. This is in addition to the general exposure to my followers.
