Ask a Bitcoiner why he still posts on X and you rarely hear conviction. You hear reach. His followers sit there, his replies sit there, and moving means starting from zero again. I hold my own keys and run my own relay, and after months I am still under a hundred followers here. One thread on X reaches more people in an hour.
That gap does not close by telling people to be consistent. It closes when switching gets cheap: read a profile without an account, follow from a single link, no relay settings on first launch. Moral pressure convinces nobody who is already paying rent elsewhere.

You are so right
Exactly! But I also think it’s up to us. We should share more, follow more people, and support each other. You’ve got one more follower now! Let’s grow Nostr together instead of just talking about it. ₿⚡
I never was on X. I'm not interested in "reach" or the "number" of followers. That's all for the ego. Also here on Nostr. Worthless. What you need in real life are some buddies you can call after midnight when you need help because your car broke down.....
People with loads of followers on X should try to convince them switching. But dont say to nostr. Because that is a mess. The won't even make it to the point to decide for a client. Instead tell them to use a client ie nostrich is very X like. Taste can and will develop from there. Because just Ranting here is not helping either. And we need content creators. Nobody changes for a bloody coffee mug picture every day, at least we have good bots though 😂
