I don’t have anything specific in mind to draw users, but the currently “if you build it, they will come” approach isn’t working.
Discussion
that's obvious
but if you don't have any ideas then maybe one should question your certainty about the marketing budget
specially because primal is doing that already but you didn't comment on it
Where is primal marketing? I’ve yet to see any at all.
Also, for something that’s obviously the wrong method, why has it been the attitude of the developers and community for two years now?
as I said I don't think any of these developers has an idea of what to do (and you also don't)
you can see some attempts here and there like primal ad videos with naked men, some more design care in some landing pages of nostr apps and article writing in external publications or promotion videos, but is any of that fruitful? likely not
what would be fruitful?
Maybe an organization dedicated to outreach and traditional marketing? There have been no shortage recent waves of users fleeing one place for another, but nostr has benefited minimally, if at all, as no one even knows it exists.
imagine there exists such organization
what concrete measures could it be taking?
