The fact that you can't just join #nostr and immediately get a huge following or tons of engagement is a FEATURE not a BUG.
It prevents the low-time-preference grifters and scammers from getting any foothold into our communities. It makes it so that only the highest quality communications and relationships survive on the protocol. It is the best adaptation of human social networking ever invented—where reputation matters most.
And those who have bought and paid for every centralized communication platform today have to start from square one on Nostr, just like everyone else.
