As Nostr is decentralized and relatively unchecked without a centralized governance of content, I assumed security would be more up To the end user, is it not less secure in most all circumstances? Like I could click a nasty link directly on Nostr right ?

Yup
Yeah, but you'll never get an email from "nostr" asking you to login
True, but 1 less email attack is marginally better security.
Being able to easily identify legitimate addresses easily is a big deal, actually. I've been frustrated frequently, lately, with the "is this email phishing or legit" conundrum.
Even if you think "I'll just go to their website and check", they often have legit looking websites whose address is almost-identical to the original.
Yeah. But Nostr doesn’t fix this. By now someone should have a better tech solution, same with spam calls and texts.
Nostr;
