That’s the problem. People don’t care what Nostr is. They only care if they can follow their friends, family and favorite celebs. Until they can do that, no amount of onboarding effort will matter. And yes, of course that’s a chicken-and-egg problem.
And I hate to say it folks, but all the different clients makes it even more confusing. 99% of people just use the default web browser that comes with their device. They don’t even know what the app is called. Nor do they care.
When iOS and Android each come shipped with their own default Nostr app, and it’s just called something super generic like “Social”, then we’ll start the real adoption.
Or, ya know, we just convince Taylor Swift to move 100% to Nostr. That’d work too.
trey (npub164q…2rl3) you were asking for progressive non-bitcoiners to interview? Go after Taylor Swift.
