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.

Somebody hit up Kanye or Trump or whoever is being cancelled next that is super high profile and get them on board. Those guys are nobs imo but they have the attention of the masses🤢

UI helps but also people need an impetus to take up new tech at least for those outside of the early adopters. A viral event that gets a lot of people looking for alternatives to Twitter or other pop social media. Things like Canada banning content is what I mean but even larger. Whatever UI improvements can be made for these people will help conversion but you need an influx of people also.
