The biggest obstacle we have is convincing people to pay for media hosting. People would be coming from free platforms where they may be the product but at least they earn something when one of the videos goes viral or they keep at it till they improve enough and get some subscribers. On nostr, not only is there no algo to promote your content, you also have to pay for media hosting. Double negative.

Even if the other UX was flawless, you’d still have to deal with both of these issues somehow. We can solve the algo part but I’m not sure how you solve the media hosting.

Most people are like sheep; they follow the leader, and in this case it’s celebrities.

Until celebrities come to Nostr the normies won’t.

I don’t believe this.

Fair enough.

But the majority of people don’t care about algorithms or decentralised platforms, they just follow the masses.

My memory may be a bit vague but I think with twitter it was just tech guys until the celebrities came along

Yeah that’s right. But we also have blue sky growing prior to celebrities joining. They’re there now but it was already growing before they joined
