It is a strange situation. I come from being unnoticed on Twitter because no one sees tweets from a checkmark free guy with 20 followers to being unnoticed here because 1/3 of my followers are myself. Not that anyone is missing out. I don't meme.

We would love to hear your thoughts. Additionally, when users get interaction, it encourages them to post more. We will definitely have this option very soon; there are already some solutions.
It isn't something that I have been able to solve. It is the graph bootstrapping problem. You want a high quality graph that reflects real-life relationships and is complete enough to have efficient paths to interesting strangers. But you can't get everyone to join at once.
Early days gets you an interesting group of like-minded individuals, but in the midterm most of the graph connections are meaningless and don't really reflect real-world knowledge or trust. Trying to connect to meaningful conversations requires lots of personal dedication and filtering. There may not be a good way to do it algorithmically since the data just isn't there.
The #1 goal needs to be improving the quality of connections by providing apps that are useful or entertaining to real world groups that just sneakily happen to use Nostr as an ID and data exchange layer. Stupid stuff like employee portals or student information systems. Imagine being able to transfer seamlessly between employers or schools.
