Thank you all for your input in helping me narrow down my list of Nostr-related questions! Here's the shortened list, based on 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 recommendations:
Following the same pattern as the Bitcoin edition of 21 Questions, I divided all the questions into 3 categories, with 7 questions in each category. If you notice anything that needs to be changed — a missing question, a question that shouldn't be there, a question in the wrong category (remember that I'm going for 7 questions in each category), a small typo, or anything else — please tell me in the comments.
Once again, thank you for all your help! Especially to:

The votes are in, and it looks like this might be the final list of the top 21 questions about Nostr!
What do you think? Are there any questions you think are missing? Any that you think shouldn't be on the list? Let me know in the comments! ⬇️
No, I mean once you close your Lightning channels, you'll still have all the sats (minus mining fees) in your Mutiny wallet, but on-chain. So then you can send them to any on-chain address.
Send all your sats to an on-chain address from another one of your wallets.
I will store it safely, somewhere hidden and cold.
You don't have to tell me. I was already sold!
I don't want him on here either, but if he does create a Nostr key pair (I'm not holding my breath), then I just won't follow him. Maybe I'll even block him. 🤷♂️
Free and open source protocols like Nostr and Bitcoin are for enemies. That doesn't mean we have to interact or transact with them, though.
Do you even know what freedom and peace are?
Freedom requires responsibility, accountability, and inner strength. All things that those who wish they could change something as fundamental as their gender are running from.
Peace comes only from living in harmony with what actually is. Lies, delusions, and desires that run contrary to what reality actually is (e.g. thinking you're a different gender than you are), are antithetical to peace.
But no, you'd rather preach "freedom" without consequences, and "peace" on each person's own terms, as if they were God or something. If that's Libertarianism, then I'm the farthest thing from it. And if that's Bitcoin -- well no, it isn't, because Bitcoin is unchangeable, incorruptible truth. Bitcoin runs 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 the laws of nature, not against them like humans so frequently do. And Bitcoin holds everyone accountable with unyielding power, it doesn't bend over backwards with every (or any) human whim.
It seems to me you've missed the point. You can do better.
Calling all #Nostriches! I'm working on the very first book about Nostr, so I thought I'd #AskNostr and get your input. I've gathered a list of over 40 of the most common questions that newcomers usually ask about Nostr, and which are the most important for them to know, but now they need to be narrowed down.
Follow the link below, and in each category, select the most important and frequently asked questions by new Nostr users. Try to choose a total of 10-20 questions. And if you think of any that aren't on my list yet, add them in the comment boxes on the second page.

I don't believe you. Explain yourself!

Meanwhile somewhere in California, Robocop 1.0 enters the room.

Were they 𝘵𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 to make that thing look like a dalek?
Thanks for the suggestion! I'm planning on doing this in the same format as the Bitcoin edition of 21 Questions (https://a.co/d/em4JnV6), in which there are 21 chapters, each chapter's title is one of the top questions, and notable people in the Nostr space give their answers, be they short, long, or in bullet point form. This serves 2 purposes: to educate the reader about Nostr, and familiarize them with some of the greatest minds involved with Nostr.
Speaking of being a mama bear, have you heard of the "Mama Bear Apologetics" books? There's a general one about "Empowering Your Kids to Challenge Cultural Lies," but my wife is in a Bible study group with other homeschool moms, and they're reading through this other one, subtitled: "a Guide to Sexuality: Empowering Your Kids to Understand and Live Out God’s Design".
My wife loves it (except for some truly nasty stuff that the auther has to bring to the reader's attention), and often reads excerpts of it out loud to me. It's here on Amazon, if you're interested:

By forbidden did they mean illegal?
What are the most common questions/concerns/FUD you've gotten about Nostr from newbies who haven't been purple pilled yet? 🟣
And not just basic ones, like "What is Nostr?".
I'll zap 1000 sats to all my favorite questions. ⚡
My 7-month-old son met his great-grandmother earlier today, for the first and almost certainly the last time.
This picture hits me really hard. Not only is it capturing a beautiful moment that he will never remember, but it's also a perfect representation of the past and future gazing at each other. "What will he do with his life after I'm gone?" she may be wondering. "What experiences have you had over the last 8+ decades?" he might ask if he knew how.
Moments like this should give us perspective. Each and every one of you reading this have been the age of my son, and each and every one of us will one day depart this life, hopefully at a ripe old age, like my grandmother-in-law.
What will we do in between? That's the question we need to ask ourselves. And we should answer it every day with our actions, so that when our time comes to pass the torch to the rising generation, we can do it with peace in our hearts, clarity in our minds, and filled with hope for the future for our loved ones we'll leave behind.

Nocoiners then: "The government will ban #Bitcoin."
Nocoiners now: "If the government's creating a strategic bitcoin reserve, then I want nothing to do with it!"
Some will choose to literally die on the hill of their own pride before accepting life and prosperity. Ignore them.
Trump said that the reason he wants to focus on #Bitcoin comes down to 2 reasons: America first.
I think it's primarily for a reason that can be summed up in 2 other words: Game theory.
