It was really easy to get invited to bluesky though.
Dozens of people on my Facebook feed at the time were begging people to accept their invites.
Shit actually that gives me an idea.
Someone make a damn Nostr client that is invite only, and don't even mention Nostr, make it seem to the average social media user like it is its own platform.
Let them sign up with an email and password/phone number/ by linking other social media.
So it's connected to their nsec and they don't even need to know about it.
They can learn everything later on.
Give them 150 or so people to follow when they sign up based on their interests and maybe a dozen random new accounts so they can all start with a few followers when they get here.
Seriously if I was a dev and not an idiot I would have already made the app myself and built a set of dedicated relays and media hosting for it.
Once they're here and they're building community then they can start to actually learn how nostr works and even be encouraged to try other clients.
