1. My favorite thing about NOSTR are the polite happy people who are engaging in real conversations about real topics. Hopefully that culture will be maintained as NOSTR grows. I think #coffeechain #goodmorning #introductions and zapping all feed this positive vibe
2. My least favorite thing about NOSTR is the lack of users. I think an honest assessment of the number of daily users would be about 10,000. The focus has been on building more cool tech and building and building and there has been zero effort into a PR campaign for NOSTR.
3. I created my first nsec on May 15, 2023 and have studied NOSTR many hours daily simce then.
4. I use Amethyst almost exclusively. I will login to Primal occasionally and Damus to see what they are up to.
5. Most clients have an awful sign in process. People should be able to login and start using NOSTR without knowing or caring anything about nsec, relays or anything else. Just login and go. Let people learn about these refinements later.
6. The lack of users is really the main hurdle. NOSTR needs 100,000 daily users or 1 million daily users to really breakout and be useful. NOSTR is so incredibly powerful because the simplicity makes it possible to build new functionality which simply does not exist anywhere else or to "expose" functionality which has been walled off and only available to people who control the major social media companies. However, if nobody knows about NOSTR how will it reach it's true potential. Certainly someone in the NOSTR universe must have a media connection (or 100) who could mention NOSTR anytime an article is written about Threads, Twitter, Blue Sky, Mastadon, etc. #grownostr #asknostr #plebchain
