Brazilian guy complaining that Nostr is monothematic and that he doesn't get many followers in comparison with his other social networks:

nostr:note1vgnt242thjd6was4ysqfewl2d8ql8qyz7k5vdzdwcnvyqcpsucmqmtz55m

Although I disagree with his tone and his expectations, I agree that Nostr being monothematic is a very bad thing. I'm hopeful it will improve over time and there are some initiatives pushing us for that, but still it is undeniably a bad thing and probably the first reason why we're losing to Bluesky in number of users.

Another bad thing are these follower counts. These counts should have never been a real thing, they are misleading and just confuse people, but what can I do about them?

Onboarding could be improved as it is mainly about B's & Z's and promotion of. There are good folks here who help to find the subjects others are interested in & put them in the news feed.

Maybe a "how to use" pop-up or automatically bookmarked for new accounts?

A text field search for related accounts and notes I think would be helpful to discover new subjects and for onboarding. Possibly powered by Lightning, Data Vending Machines and LLMs.
