OK, so in the topic of shouting a beer, rounds, etc...
Most of the people that I know are happy to buy rounds, shout you a beer, etc.
But, from time to time, I get to know a new person that is very, very sneaky about this. In the sense that they would almost try to buy you something, but not doing it really.
How do you deal with that shit?
I just met a person, hanging out a couple of times, and definitely has been not paying their fair share. Like, probably "owning" 3-4 beers down after one or two times.
How do you deal with that kinds of stuff?
I'm planning to simply not buy that guy in particular a beer the next time we meet. Fair enough right? anyone else can get their round, but I'm not going to buy one for him in particular.
reply
If everyone else is buying a round, call him out for the next one while the rest can hear you: "I think next one's on you". Works for me to push the less inclined. Also good to stress any rounds that are given: " I'm buying the first round" etc. If he still doesn't follow, don't buy for him. If he asks, tell him you didn't get a round from him yet, so you thought he wasn't drinking anymore or smth.

Have you been here long enough to see SN evolve -- in other words, does it feel different than it used to? If so, how and why? Is this different from other online communities you've been part of?
reply
The rewards have been changing a bit. Other than that, more shitposts have appeared.
But overall, it's still great
reply
I really hope SN can hang on to it's fairly high level of discourse as it grows, but I've also noticed more of that kind of thing.

what would it take for you to stop using twitter completely
and also
how do you use nostr
reply
I never really started using Twitter. I'm a pretty casual nostr user, only following a handful of people. It hasn't really developed to where I get a lot out of it yet.
reply
what site or app do you like to use for nostr
reply
I use Iris on my desktop and Damus if I have to use my phone. I don't know if I'd say I like either of them, though. I'm very open to better apps, but I haven't gone out of my way to find them.
Minds is supposed to have nostr integration, but it seems to be broken. If they get that working, that's how I'll probably use nostr.
