I think Nostr clients should hide the key generation/management for a while and once the user is engaged, remind that they have to backup the keys, and explain how the keys work.. Don't overwhelm users with Nostr specific things.
Have some popular and some random relays. Everybody needs interaction in my opinion and without popular relays there is a risk of not being heard. Not being heard hits harder than centralization in my opinion.
Make it somewhat fun for the new user. "The algo" on the other networks is making the experience fun too, it is not just mind control! Help the user reach the best content on Nostr. This may be hard without LLMs but I guess DVMs are evolving.
It's interesting what happens when you open your eyes to other things. The likes on the posts on Substack, where people are saying they left or are leaving all things from the major social media platforms, are telling.
People are tired of fakery and being controlled.
While Nostr offers an out, most people are not going to mess with keys, crypto, or a small, active daily user base to build their businesses or grow their followings with.
That could obviously change going forward.
