ElectronicMonkey on Nostr: my thoughts on this ...
my thoughts on this
quoting note1ydr…emn9time is just different now. we are not at the early edge when the internet / mobile phones just came out. people are used to all kinds of easy and fancy apps, especially social networks. we need new things to bring people over.
The reason that decentralization and censorship resistance will not work for normies is that most people don't have to. to some degree, we are all outcasts on Nostr.
if you want to invite your popular friends to our little party, I can see there are only two ways of doing that:
1. make this new party fancy and precious so they want to come. eg: there is at least one subject where the greatest content and smartest people is only visible on Nostr instead of any other social media. we had a poor job at this aspect, think the most talked topic like #Bitcoin , the hottest topics right now is #brc20 #ordinals #inscriptions but Twitter has more discussion and debates going on than #Nostr
2. provide a decentralization version of Twitter/Facebook but with 100x better UX/UI and pay a lot of money on marketing/operation to migrate people from those products. apparently, this is not the future for Nostr as well.
