on point. i came in with strong, deep resonance to the ethos. finding it hard to make connections and widen my world here - especially given it is a start from scratch though.
let’s see how it evolves with time
The most important piece of the puzzle with onboarding new nostriches isn't the technical stuff surrounding nostr and the different apps, functions, and features.
It's about creating meaningful, authentic connections with humans. Quickly. Give them a reason to stay, come back, contribute.
If these new users can't or don't do that don't expect them to stick around. Onboarding MUST emphasize building connections.
I say this because this is exactly what hampered my onboarding just under 1 year ago. nostr:nprofile1qqsdvckpplxm9wvsevfln6f573ucmx7snyvhn5p64gzjejmy0rgrntcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxmhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wfcxcetzwvhxxmmd9uq3jamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwdhx7un59eek7cmfv9kz7mqxfg7 didn't give up. The technical stuff can come later.

It definitely takes time. The more you invest here the more it gives back.
