Great post. The thoughts seem to be in a good direction.

"I can’t look at someone straight in the eyes and tell them that Primal is the next TikTok or Youtube Killer etc."

Exactly. A Nostr app is a fundamentally different thing compared to TikTok or youtube or Twitter. Can't market it the same way and we should embrace that fact. We should not seek to emulate their hyper attention grabbing incentives and structure because it will end horribly.

Need to think in terms of programming different incentives and priming new users for new outlook. Push them into the direction where they don't want to be a normie anymore. Help them feel good about owning their shit in cyber.

We need to have a discussion about the ‚how‘. I’m also still figuring that out for #NoorNote. Input welcome.

"Truth is that nobody wants another social media app"

yes! no one wants change. they are happy with their legacy apps to the point they don't care if those app contribute to genocide.

for one, stop trying to be like them. there's a reason we left and if you're still fence riding have you accually even arrived on nostr yet 🤨

homestly i'm about done with the nostr evangelism and onboarding stuff. if you don't want to put in the work to discover the value of nostr then stay in your space. AI is going to disrupt everything soon regardless. if you want to whore out your time to zuck, musk, and whatever other billionares are gobbling up your attention, be my guest.

nostr is so much more than a silly social app. we are building the future economies and governments right here, right now. that's a scary idea to many people and i respect that. i do not, however, respect most of your economies and governments.

exit app. embrace the protocol.

We don’t need to convince everyone all at once. One wave at a time is how any social media titan today came to be. We’re gonna make it💪🏼

we probably still in the “innovators” stage tbh

I think so too, we’re very early

Be patient. the prophets gave dawah for decades.

I feel like nostr is just a stepping stone to the next generation which would be truly decentralized social media. it is torrent based and the users' devices are the servers and moderation is up to the end user, not a third party.

you can already do all that on nostr

Same thing with fiat. They got no fking clue what good or bad money is. So hopelessly dependent on the system that they fight to protect it.
