I'm also torn, but I guess lets just wait and see. I have been in the crypto space for long enough to realize that there is no perfect end solution, just an endless flow of new stuff and some things just stick even if they are not the best solution. You can use the perfect solution, but you might be alone there, in the end the value is where the people are.

Just like with bitcoin, I could make a case for some xyz coin being a bitcoin killer and having better tech, more private, faster...etc. But its just screaming into the wind. Network effect is a bitch 😉

But the positive thing is, that even nostr, although not perfect is still 1000x better than traditional social media and maybe total secrecy is not the ideal. Maybe its a good signal for society to see which country blocks nostr relays, then you at least know that that country is shit and you should consider moving out. That is quite a valuable signal in some way. Also it gives countries that are more free an edge, that empowers them with the inflow of citizens, users, revenue from datacenters where people host their relays/other services...etc.

I'm just rambling here, the main point is, that "good enough" usually wins long term, without us knowing or controlling what it will be. right now, even traditional social media is "good enough" since it doesn't censor "that much" yet for it to be a problem that people would talk about. And currently centralized social media is a winner.
