When you start using a social network like Twitter (for example), there's a feeling of isolation, of talking to yourself. However, this feeling quickly fades because you start to find someone you know here, another one there, you expand your network of contacts, and before you know it, you're amidst a group of people. Moreover, other people are looking for topics you discuss, and like magic, people start to reach out to you.

Here on NOSTR, that feeling of isolation is a bit stronger and lasts longer too. First, because finding someone you know here is almost impossible (at least for me). Second, because since there are many fewer people, the chance of someone randomly finding you is very small.

In the end, this entire journey of building an audience is much more complex, laborious, and time-consuming here. But I think that's part of it, right?
