Thread - Nostr Hypermedia

I mean we should choose to use some of the OpenSats money for PR. I’m not saying it’s a good idea, but we have resources. Honestly I’d rather use it to fund non-dev non-bitcoin projects who want to try and bring communities of users on to Nostr. Discord grew to be huge without much mainstream press. Getting hype leads to the boom and bust cycles like happened with Threads.

have you seen @Stemstr ? it’s an app for music creators to collaborate and create together. there’s a huge addressable market of music artists on closed networks.

we should use some funds for marketing, PR, branding. Establish differentiators between clients. Understand what are the talking points in all the smaller user markets that can be tapped into. Would be great to have mainstream media but we do not need excessive $$$ for it. Tapping into micro influencers, blogs, reviews, small media - starting small - can get the fire going just as much.

Maybe we could engage with the folks at SimplySecure.org who have already been studying UX and decentralization.

if you're going to use money to advertise you have to focus your advertising on people who would be interested in this product. for example it would be total waste of time to advertise to boomers on Facebook or to shit-libs on Mastodon. on other hand there is quite a lot of transplants from GAB here on Nostr. GAB is much bigger than Nostr right now so you could pick up quite a few people from there. not every person on GAB is a nazi too. for example Dr. Robert Malone is currently under attack on GAB for not being a Nazi:

Gab Social

RW Malone MD (@RobertMaloneMD) on Gab

mRNA and DNA vaccine inventor and skeptic. Science is my muse. Helping people is what I do. Married happily for 42 years. https://rwmalonemd.subst...

he was smart enough to invent MRNA vaccine perhaps he's also smart enough to use Nostr if somebody got in touch with him.

if you want to advertise try to do it through Joe Rogan - that would ensure you're tapping into the right audience. Alex Jones is an option as well. Personally i am here because of @Lyn Alden and @jack If you can get big names in the freedom movement like Rogan, Jones, Stefan Molyneux etc. to join that would attract a lot of people just don't waste time and money advertising to people who aren't interested in freedom ( liberals ) or technology ( boomers )
