I've never even used Twitter. This beats the hell out Twitter's nonexistent network effects.

Twitter has a network, but a network effect is defined by a network being made stronger by every new participant.

I don't think Twitter has that anymore.

Also, Nostr isn't a single network. There are many relays, and while they are interoperable, they aren't necessarily on the same network.

This is important because people have private communication networks already - dms, private group chats, etc. All of that can be on Nostr, but not all of it has to be. It's modular. But the more stuff people have on Nostr, the easier I'll be to just use Nostr for everything, because all Nostr clients can talk to each other easily, but not all social media apps can talk to each other.

Nostr actually has a network effect. Twitter doesn't anymore.
