Nostr's most popular use case right now is a Twitter alternative, though it's a Twitter alternative on steroids, because that's what we needed in the present. In the coming months and years, as the "Other Stuff" expands, we'll start to see the masses see Nostr as more than just "social media" but as a much larger social and communication ecosystem. We just have to wait for users to dream it and developers to build it.

I'd like to see Nostr's next big push move into areas that need Nostr the most such as a Reddit alternative. This will showcase Nostr as both Twitter like social and community like social. Thankfully, this vision is already underway with NIP-172. 🤙🏻

Soon we will have Reddit on Steroids.

Nostreddit FTW

Network effects ^ use cases

Every new use case improves the network effects of all other use cases

I can't wait for this. Nearly every damn subreddit is moving to Lemmy.

I hope nostr isn’t to late and everyone is already on Lemmy or somewhere else.

The problem with Lemmy (and likewise Mastodon, being based on ActivityPub) is that everyone's data is still siloed and subject to being deleted at the whim of the person running the instance.

Starting to think that I'm going to need a Nostr/JavaScript tutor to really make progress on my idea 😬

They will come

Does NIP stand for Nostr improvement proposal?
