It's weird to see external people that are aligned with Nostr's goals and even the overall design to complain about petty bugs or small details -- well, even big issues.

"Oh, I like the idea of Nostr, but it's so bad because I tried a random client and the search button doesn't work, therefore I will assert that Nostr is retarded and will never succeed."

The thing is: to whom are you complaining? Nostr isn't an organization trying to sell you anything, and if you are aligned with the goals then that supposed "Nostr problem" is also your problem so start trying to solve it. Or maybe you have a better alternative?, otherwise the tone of the complaint doesn't make sense.

People say that the biggest threat to Bitcoin is fiscally responsible governments.

Perhaps the biggest threat to nostr adoption is governments allowing free speech on the Internet.

There’s a ratcheted adoption to both bitcoin and nostr, frequently expressed with “once you see it, you can’t unsee it.” Same with government spending and power grabs. A government can probably stop and get fiscally responsible for a short period. But they can’t rollback past gluttony and they can’t prevent future printer orgies. Same with censorship. Bitcoin and nostr are inevitable.
