# Why We Love Nostr and Will It Stay That Way?

---

## Is the main reason we prefer Nostr to X that the community is small and like-minded?

* Nostriches have access to Devs and even get engagement from big users like Jack and Snowden

* We seem to value freedom, speech, and at least maintaining a relatively positive environment

* Bitcoiners are the majority and enjoy not being on the fringe

## What happens when Nostr scales; when the floodgates open to the masses? Will the elements we cherish disappear?

* Are zaps and the absence of feed algorithms enough?

* Can specialized relays solve this problem?

I don't think Nostr's relay system scales well enough to become the next Usenet/FB/X/Instagram/Reddit/StackExchange. I expect this will limit participation in Nostr to small-ish communities built around lists of related relays and client applications.

And I think that's a great thing.

It will still be more diverse and thought-provoking than most of its rivals.
