I noticed my Coinbase app has a tab called web3, so I had a look at the social dapps.

What a fucking joke. It’s not apps and whatever it is isn’t social. It’s all obvious money-making schemes that reek of hype.

It’s the opposite of Nostr in every way.

Where Nostr is one click and you’re in, Dapps have insanely complicated and expensive barriers to entry.

Where Nostr mostly looks cheap and buggy, dapps have slick designs that ooze of VC money and marketing teams.

Where Nostr is a bubbling cauldron of innovation, dapps make vague promises.

I bet more useful innovation happened here this week alone than the entire altcoin space has produced since inception.
