This stat is sadly very revealing. Most people stop using #Damus because #Nostr doesn’t have the algorithms designed to keep people addicted. Most people are conditioned to expect a constant stream of stimulation and a dopamine hit from the algos. So for most people Nostr feels empty and devoid of content. I’m not sure how we can break people of this addiction.

Thanks to some analysis from our intern Jeroen 🫖🐸 (npub17pl…ezx0) , according to opt-in AppStore analytics one of the biggest issues with Damus is user retention. 99% of people stop using damus after 6 months.

In the next version we will be looking at ways to get mores users to that “ah ha” moment that gets them to stick around like all of us addicts.

Ideas welcome! Notifications is obviously a big one, but maybe we could make it easier to get people their first sats.
