I heard honest and smart bitcoiners disregard Nostr because it still needs a blatantly obvious use-case it captures with an app that solves a very important and urgent problem they have. Also, Bitcoiners have been spoiled with fantastic libertarian explanations of money, its origins and how it is broken. We need that explanation for Nostr, and pioneer an example that cannot be waved off. The rest will follow. You yourself are somewhat wary of the merits of social media, contrasted with an urgent problem with money. They feel that too. It doesn't have to be an either or question, of course. We can attack centralization on multiple fronts. So we need to explain what Nostr is excellent (not just good) for and have that a particular solution featuring those properties. Unfortunately I came to believe that social media might not be the area that gets us through the chasm. People mostly act like it's okay to have that centralized by corporations (they don't pay for services, gravitate back when a ban is lifted). Network effects and convenience over freedom. It's the reality. Social media will benefit from Nostr winning but those users will most likely be laggards in Nostr adoption. My bet is markets (make sats, earn verifiable unstoppable Reputation) and interoperable/forkable communities (more signal and exclusiveness, more fear of censorship from gov, platforms and group leaders alike) .
