It's not so much about the protocol as much as it is about the ecosystem being in infancy. I get where you're coming from but, if you think about it, this is exactly what is beautiful about Nostr. We're early. People are building, exploring, trying things out.
Most of it is fully open-source so you can contribute and change things that don't quite work for you. That helps the community.
Or you can even build a custom solution that perfectly fits your exact needs and wants :)

So many creators are missing out on v4v, and the general freedom that Nostr provides. I wonder if they even know about Nostr?
We're still sooooo early.
There is something deeply satisfying when looking at the old art next to a long text or a video. nostr:nprofile1qqst0mtgkp3du662ztj3l4fgts0purksu5fgek5n4vgmg9gt2hkn9lqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnp0faxzmt09ehx2ap06fen87 is doing this for Nostr long form posts. This aesthetics is similar to that of the Academy of Ideas' videos.
Speaking of which, I highly recommend their content! I wish they were on Nostr, though.
