Nostr isnt designed to scale at all. Connection oriented networks dont scale very well. But they can do a decent enough job.

Sufficiently decentralized is orthogonal to scaling and imho a red herring. We know what scales through observation and we know what doesnt scale through observation.

Nostr was under 100 users 2 years ago. It's done very well to get where it has, but it wont overtake the internet, and isnt designed to. It's a very useful tool, and unlocks a lot of developer innovation and creativity. Working as expected.
