I’ve done some work for a few YouTubers recently and they told me that Nostr is cool but without a large enough audience the “keep more of your income” thing isnt a winning argument. And they’re barely scraping by as is with YouTube constantly changing their algorithm.
And all the other great things about Nostr require there to be a lot of content (algo choice, zaps, never goes down, censorship resistance, etc)
It’s definitely a chicken and egg problem.
I think the only way out is apps that can ONLY be built on Nostr that will thrive. Things that are impossible for X or Insta or YouTube to do.
That can be a bigger base audience than just people who care about freedom tech. And can attract increasing number of folks to other stuff
