But they are sure racking up the dollars. Their goal was never to cure anyone, that would defeat the money machine.

used Windows at work, but always used OpenSource at home, find it way more user friendly and certainly no wasted time booting.

Uncomfortable Nostr Reality check:

I've tried to Nostr-pill all my YouTube friends (some of them have incredible amounts of subs), but none of them care about the censorship resistance or decentralization. Even though they know Nostr exists, they have no incentive yet to come here. Their audience would follow them anywhere, but they need the tools to create community communications.

It's a sad reality, but it all comes down to usability, UX, and ultimately the easiness of paying and signing up for the community. None of these can afford to have a sign-up problem or issues with someone being interested in joining the community/their platform. It needs to work flawlessly and feel and look professional. Some of them charge $3-5k a year just to get access to this closed space, and people are willing to pay for this.

Another big pain point is community management. All of these YouTubers create these platforms to help their audience have a safe place to communicate with each other and build their own tribe.

Nostr is capable of facilitating all of this - we're just not there yet. We need to somehow invest so much more into UX and design.

All of this will come when the time is due. So, knowing that all of this is possible and that ultimately, Nostr will be powering most of these via the social graph, is what makes me extremely bullish. But also, let's not get ahead of ourselves and expect them to come already.

The UX and features are not there yet for these people. I am more than happy to help anybody trying to make this a reality. I want nothing more than having these people join Nostr. But I also totally understand their pain points. So, if you're a dev or a company working on this, please feel free to reach out - I can tell you all the issues they told me. Or just tell me how to best do this; maybe I can jump on a podcast so the issues are open-sourced for the whole community to hear.

I'm trying to use Nostr but get totally frustrated. I'm not technically inclined, but fairly computer literate. One thing I hate about Nostr is that if you've make a mistake on what you post, you CAN'T delete the post or edit it. This is HUGE in my world!

I listened to Michelle Makori - Kitco News interview #Carol Roth, who wrote, "You Will Own Nothing". She had a great explanation of #CBDC; so glad we have #Bitcoin - a #decentralized currency.

thankful that God was watching over you and kept you safe and that no one was harmed.
