quoting note1le3…j08rspeed is the most important feature.
being able to send a note/post via text, have it fully render, and instantly load when someone clicks on it, is one of the biggest things that will help build network effect.
communities, such as ditto, and giving people the option to make them private and encrypted, is a net new feature not found on any other platform that will draw people to the nostr social app protocol, and be the best onboarding and discovery tool out there. people care a lot more about privacy than censorship-resistance.
getting as much content and information on here, welcoming of the bots and agentic AI, will allow this protocol to be the only one that can definitively state: "see everything." especially since no individual/corporation/government can delete your content or account.
this is what i would prioritize. the past two years of nostr has been about exploring the breadth of the protocol. great! it's now time to go deep and focus on quality and differentiated experiences. not copies of copies.
