You raise some good points, personally i'm on Nostr for decentralization first and social second, and even I find myself resorting to Primal and one or two primary relays just so it works.
Majority of people just want it to work, I get that. But if we sacrifice decentralization then this is dead in the water and I move on.
As to why are they leaving, who knows, bored, sick of the bugs? Most people want to maximize influence and network effect, if they don't see Nostr as growing they will leave.
