Group Chats are the ideal bootstrap tool
1. It's freaking easy to onboard people to a specific group. They don't have to care who else is on tHe NeTwOrK and if they can find Beyoncé or Jordan Peterson. They literally come for the group and by defintion everyone is there already. If they happen to also find some other cool content, profiles and tools, that's great.
2. Groups mirror real life a lot more then tHe pUbLiC sQuArE ever can. They also have a much better overlay with the relay architecture.
3. Nostr events are a bit like real life events. You don't always invite whoever wants to come, infact that's the exception, not the rule.
4. New people have helpers to talk to. In a chat setting, not in an intimidating public feed.
5. It's easier to show case interoperable features and apps in a group setting.
