It doesn't matter yet, because Nostr is nowhere even close to being ready for casual users. It's also not even finished. Keep it small and focused, and let it slowly build into something great, before we invite the whole world.

Talking in general, not in the present moment 🙏

In the future it will be necessary, maybe. In the meantime a killer app may happen that will bring in a mass of users organically.
I think that bringing in a mass of normal users too early, before Nostr is feature complete, could give it a bad reputation. Much like satoshi was worried about WikiLeaks using bitcoin too early.
"The project needs to grow gradually so the software can be strengthened along the way. I make this appeal to WikiLeaks not to try to use Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a small beta community in its infancy. You would not stand to get more than pocket change, and the heat you would bring would likely destroy us at this stage.”
oh absolutely agreed 🫂
