I suggest engaging with the peeps on a regular basis and being consistent when posting on nostr. I got here a little over a year ago and it was really confusing at first but after a while you start to find your group. I suggest exploring the other stuff especially chat rooms, corny chat, nests, hive talk. Im not sure how long you've been here, but it takes time to make new friends.

And also, the people that built this thing and are in the industry are front and center because they built this thing and they are in. the industry, or hang around those circles. Try going to meetups, best way to meet these talented individuals.

Best of luck 🫂
