It’s simple. There needs to be a catalyst for any significant change even if all of the ingredients are prepped. For bitcoin it was the Great Recession. For Nostr it was Twitter going to shit.

I don't think this is true. I think these things are a bunch of random coincidences that we assign narratives to after the fact.

it not just Twitter - it was just the last big example.

but in 2010, who would complain about YT or orkut? It was wild, no censorship. Google still was "don't be evil".

even in dictatorships, pp could VPN to access one centralized service, safely.

no cancel culture. no debanking. data was being used for advertising, so what?

why would pp feel the need of a descentralized service, which will be slower and/or limited at least for some time if not always?
