I don't know what a Crypto Corral is. Do you mean it's mostly crypto interested people? A few others have said it's where right wingers hang out. Are right wingers crypto people? I've no idea.
I think you can find extremists on all platforms. But the thing that really turned me off is that 9/10 posts had to do with crypto. Itβs just not my bag, and the folks on Nostr embrace it (even the platform itself, allowing bitcoin payments over the lightning network).
I guess that's one of the selling points on how Jack will make money. Get a small percentage as a fee for each micro payment. I guess that's their revenue model instead of advertisers. It makes sense to not be beholden to the whims of advertisers perception potential market loss (i.e., censor things or lose revenue). But like you, I'm totally not into the crypto thing.
