people are saying bad things about nostr but the reality is that most of the users are pretty hard core cypherpunks, many of them are devs themselves, and if not devs, then fairly technical, at least administrator level skills.
a big part of the traffic i see apart from the general chitchat is technical discussions about protocol development, technical support, bug hunting and feature requests.
no silo platform system can match the percentage of advanced users at this critical stage.
nostr is built by the geeks, for the geeks, and the rest of you all, be patient, construction ongoing.
