Replying to nobody

Matt Tabbi tried. Just not enough of an audience yet. I was excited he was here are sent some decent zaps. Many did. Hard to do scale.

I also think Nostr is for everyone. My view is that people need to change for Nostr, not the other way around though. They need to learn to value their freedoms. They need to learn how easily those are taken. Basically, they need to be awake to reality.

We *should* build good software, and offer good services, but the biggest turn off to Nostr for a lot of people are the things that make Nostr Nostr. We can’t (and shouldn’t) fix or ice over those things. We shouldn’t pitch as being as “good as” or a “alternative to” MSM services. We’re not.

We’re something different, right? We’re *better* than YouTube or Twitter. But we’re also harder to use and require learning new things. Nostr is not an alternative, it’s a new paradigm.

Sure but people can change here also. Bitcoin and Nostr are great tools for change - we all know how deep the rabbit hole is

People will come for content that interests them and when they come they will have an option to learn more about other stuff

Not everyone is focused on freedom and privacy - many are just obeying citizen who do not have any idea about the lack freedom and privacy out there

I dont think we have a convincing corpus of content vs. say, YouTube, or Twitter. But it’s the same chicken and egg thing as every other social media.

I’d love for you to be 100% right.
