Until/Unless Twitter royally pisses people off and there's a mass exodus (and not a fake exodus like Bluesky, people really leave permanently) I don't see it getting to that point. Twitter just has the network effect thats very hard dethrone. Nostr would need to get much much larger for content creators to pull in enough zaps to make a living.

Most people on Twitter don’t even know about Nostr

Like who’s telling them?

We can all help by sharing nostr apps or educational content about nostr like:

It's not this that will trigger a massive movement, often it's unexpected events or celebrities that will make it go viral. But in the meantime, we can all help.

Thats the thing that sucks about Nostr's timing. It did have some interest on Twitter early on, but that's when it was in a pretty rough state. People showed up, it wasnt smooth, so they left. Now its matured quite a bit but it just doesnt get the attention now. Really unfortunate because it has so much potential.

Twitter has a very strong network effect

Nostr is just us rebels 😂
