I think we misunderstood nostr.

By focusing on building Twitter clones we drifted apart of seeing what this technology is truly about.

When the internet got invented people thought the way to go is to put newspaper onto the internet and that this would be the “revolution”. We made the same mistake by saying nostr enables social media 2.0.

I do think we need to start move from preaching and selling nostr and rather focus on the actual things nostr enables.

Lets create a new innovative form of email list for content creators - or an online shop that enables permissionless payments - or a travel app that enables to see what your friends like in a city - or a podcasting app that does integrates a social component (these products are enabled by nostr - this is not nostr) see the shift?

What if we want nostr to fix too much at once right now and that keeps us from making progress in the things that actually matter?

I think many things will be developed on nostr and the best stuff that provides the most value will be used and monetized to success at scale. I pay for Damus and love it. Well worth the sats.
