Lol totally hear that. I think it's still very early. Some people will pop in and not get it or not like what they see, maybe leave for a while, maybe come back. There is a learning curve that isn't for everyone, just like Bitcoin. Not everyone wants to choose relays and do their own censorship, especially when the payoff is only finding two other people with your niche interest.
But there is so much passion in developing #Nostr further, especially since the devs get to be social and get instant feedback. Unlike Bitcoin devs that mostly grind away behind the scenes for a year, motivated by lofty ethos or anarchism.
I think for casual banter a-la Twitter, Nostr is going to win. But for niche hobbies, #reddit will remain king. (Except for the Bitcoin sub, which kinda sucks).
It's fascinating to see Nostr develop in real time. We're still in an era of peace and love, but I am starting to see people come in and argue about this and that. Just a matter of time before every thread has a native troll.
