1. He seems to be critical - not of Nostr - but of the activism of funneling people away from channels that are efficient at reaching an audience in 2024. Why is it so important for some here to adcocate for a Nostr-only position when our reach on Nostr vs the general public is still extremely limited.
2. He is saying that Elon has better funds at his disposal vs Nostr app devs. Jack Dorsey was unable to bring free speech to Twitter because he lacked the funds necessary. Capital matters.
Of course, Twitter/X can still be overtaken by government pressure under Elon, so it makes sense that we have a presence on Nostr.
Instead of a Nostr *only* mentality I prefer a Nostr *also* outlook. Multiple communications channels is the way.

Elon will rug you
Yea, nostr-only is a virtue signal. There's nothing wrong with putting things in multiple places. If you get censored in some of them, so be it.
Yep. And the point with communication is to reach an audience.
Nostr will have better reach in a few years. It is easier to attract people to Nostr if we demonstrate confidence. Confidence means that we don't have a need to lash out at other communication channels.
Because we don't reach the idiots anyways
