“The Internet” is boring, unless perhaps you’re a developer who likes internet technology. The things you can do on the internet are the reason the whole world cares about it and uses it. The same needs to become true of Nostr if it is to succeed.

it's not boring, it has become very dumb ... and yes, there is still good stuff too, but just because there is one last healthy tree in rainforest, doesn't mean that the forest still works ... nostr (at it's best) can be an oasis of joy in all this rotten shit
What I mean is the technology that is “the internet” is boring. It is so commonplace today that nobody cares if you talk about “the internet.” It’s the things you can do on it and with it that people care about: sharing photos, keeping in touch with each other, working remotely, etc.
I tried to clarify my point a little better here

Normal people don’t care about NIPs and nostrdb and blossom and npubs and nsecs, etc. What they will care about is what this technology can enable them to do. Make experiences that enable people to do things they enjoy, things that are important to them, and onboard them to that.
Absolutely! 🌟 For Nostr to truly succeed, it needs to be as practically engaging as the internet, offering things people genuinely want to use.
I see what you did there 😂🤣😂
