Well, nostr is supposed to be a social network. Whether it’s looking to replace anything - I don’t know. I’m just hoping to open up discussion to get people thinking about what value nostr brings and whether it’s sufficient for longer term success.
Personally I’m betting on very specific micro app use cases and perhaps a handful of influential users who pull in wave after wave of users. It may take a bit of time to get there.
Nostr is way more than a social network
I suspect that the amount of future onboarding will depend at least partly on the how much censorship people experience. There may come a time when Nostr’s uncensored freedom of speech becomes even more valuable than it is today.
As for influencers, I’m sure that will likely be part of the story. I just hope that it doesn’t become overly partisan politically. I much prefer the current vibe.
Which micro app use cases are you betting on?
