Friend opens #Damus. No postings. Nothing for minutes.
I have a look: only 5 from 18 relays online.
'Why should I use this #nostr thing when it doesn't work at all?'

Strange. I would assume five connected relays are enough to get posts. Are these small relays or big known ones?🤔
But I understand that this is a negative experience and might turn away new users.
I checked and all major relays were off. Not one post came trough.
Universe posts showed.
This account is only following me and two others...
It just proved that #nostr is not useful as a twitter/social-media alternative at all.
