Unpopular opinion
Nostr is probably better off not grown by too many users

Not gonna lie, I dig the purity here.
I used reddit waay early on when it was awesome but the masses bring all the wrong things and the good things get lost in the bullshit.
Unrecognizable now.
You can always keep your feed clean, just follow the people you want and use your own relay. However, if you're using a free relay, you end up becoming the product. That's the beauty of Nostr: it was designed for you to have full control over your information. Thank you, nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6
Even the trending system is interesting: you can upload your own content, but if it doesn't receive many interactions, it will eventually drop off, even if you have satoshis to pay. The content needs engagement, such as replies, likes, etc., to stay on the list.
