The comments on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38718544 are proof that we can't make "just apps" and have people use them without knowing that Nostr is a thing. Users must know.
And in fact I think it is much easier to teach people about Nostr than about why your damn app doesn't have email+password login and where is it storing things and how does moderation work without telling them about Nostr.
And when they finally understand the basics of Nostr they will suddenly understand everything about not only your app, but about all other Nostr clients.
I completely agree with nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 here. That’s why we decided to make our main tagline “Join us on Nostr”. All app labels talk about Nostr account, etc.
You are not joining Primal, you are joining Nostr.

Good move 💜🫂🔥👌
And "you didn't get a shadowban in Primal, you got a shadowban in Nostr"? 🤔
Are there any nostr clients that do no mention nostr? I don’t understand the source of fiatjafs concern here.
Good point, I wasn't clear about that and I don't have any examples, but it's a new "movement", spearheaded by nostr:npub1r0rs5q2gk0e3dk3nlc7gnu378ec6cnlenqp8a3cjhyzu6f8k5sgs4sq9ac , I think, that says clients must hide Nostr from users at all costs.
And you always get these people saying that "normal internet users don't know about TCP" so it's a widespread belief.
👏
For anything to be mass adopted, it has to be easy to use and having to understand the tech has to be totally optional. Nostr can get here, but there is simply more work to do before the apps are really consumer friendly.
Nothing that can’t/won’t be solved, just may take a bit of time.
I couldn't Send an sats from my trust wallet to my Address In primal?
This is why several years ago, Google made it a requirement for all OEMs playing in their Google ecosystem had to add the boot animation that said "Powered by Android" because it helped build a brand. If you were running a Motorola, HTC, LG, or Samsung device that used Google Play Services, you were going to make it known that you were using Android.
This type of tagline may not matter too much in the distant future, but for now I do see it's value for Nostr.
