#Plebs, I need some advice. I'm slowly trying to #PurplePill, and I have not yet perfected my words when explaining what #Nostr is.

Do you think it's necessary for me to explain that Nostr is a protocol and then try to explain, in the simplest way possible, the difference between a protocol and an app?

- This might result in some confusion and a longer onboarding process.

Alternatively, do you think I should just avoid possibly confusing my friends and go with their idea of calling Nostr an app?

- In the future, they might ask me why I didn't explain the difference 🥵🤷‍♀️.

Comparison to email protocol (SMTP) might be helpful.

In an messaging app like whatsapp you can only text each other if you both have the same app.

In contrary with email you can use different providers/apps built on the same protocol and still send messages to each other.
