Platforms come and go, but protocols have the ability to live on and thrive.

okay?
why are protocols not susceptible to dying? i feel as if we shouldn’t always act as if nostr is absolutely flawless all the time and shouldn’t be criticized.
again, my point on it never catching on with the younger generation still stands, but also protocols can definitely be a hit with older millennials and up! that’s okay too
Friendster, MySpace, etc. were all filled with younger generations. Those platform died. Nostr as a protocol has the chance to be dozens and dozens of different platforms. If one does, it doesn't really matter.
100%
Whatever the younger generation wants, can be built on nostr. Not saying it will be - but it could be.
The only people nostr needs to catch on with is the builders, not the users.
I criticize Nostr all of the time 😂 When something is janky or I don't like it, I complain. I complain because I want Nostr to succeed. With centralized platforms, complaining can only go so far. You or anyone else cannot fix it. You have to wait for the company to do it. With Nostr, anyone can build or fix my complaints! It's all in the open. Sure, Nostr is far from perfect, but I can surely see the potential and I'm willing to deal with numerous pains in the ass while it's gets built, because I feel it's worth it.
I have a feeling my man @Zach is going to be that person 👀
The younger generation is gonna have a hard time to find it if nobody talks about it on legacy social media.
It has to be on tictok. They only use that. My daughter says I’m a boomer for using YouTube
maybe I should reconsider my "not restreaming" mentality.
