#2 seems most clear path for now, not knowing what innovation will spark the first path. So for #2 what are the next likely topics/communities that sit outside the mainstream, or threaten institutional orthodoxy, such that they would benefit from a move to nostr?

I don’t know a ton about Mastodon, but my understanding is that it’s been around long enough to have some substantial if still somewhat fringe communities actively using. Are the integrations/bridges effective/used/useful? Are there other cultural barriers between Mastodon/Nostr preventing more cross-usage.
Is content moderation ever a problem for Mastodon instances or do they mostly remain small enough they just rule with an iron fist and don’t have much government coercion?
