I decided to change my npub from here:
nostr:npub1ngs4dyj46z36ne6lrh3wfjyrexlzu4s43plj9vhv76cczw7dtp7sf96dlu
There are two main reasons:
-
I created all of my Floppy PNGs using this npub that I'm posting from. I embedded the hex version in the graphic, and sign all of them with the nsec that is signing this post. I've gone back and forth on that, but it seems useful to have consistent identity for those trying to verify.
-
I generally follow those that follow me. Culturally, I'm off a few notches from many on Nostr. My politics and understanding of where I fit in the world and what I'm doing here are significantly different, and this causes cycles that neither of us need. I'm OK with learning new things, but in the large majority of cases, I've realized that it is futile to engage with zealots. I have learned some things here, more than I have on other platforms. By changing my npub, I can give others a chance to engage only if they are in a state of mind to be two-way. Put another way, if you can still deal with my shit after my flurries, there is another chance to engage once you realize I'm pretty much running to my own drum and won't ever do Bitcoin (or any other crypto currency). Besides not doing Bitcoin, I'm also relatively conservative as far as geopolitics and freedom. I see our struggles as civilization grappling with being way past peak complexity. I don't see it as a struggle for freedom against encroaching oppression coming from everywhere. There is oppression coming from everywhere, but it is a symptom of peak complexity and other constraints of 8 billion people in an increasingly extractive relationship with nature.
