In that interest in nostr is geninue. Invites were a closed beta system captured by external influence. I think creating value and informative resources about the "product" is okay (considered a pull tactic). I believe they should either be high-level, catering to a broad audience (different languages), or highly individualized to avoid the distasteful targeting that occurs when a "product" tries to pull a specific group (resulting in the lowest common denominator of that group). This mistake is what led to Bluesky's captured mess. However, they are doing quite well, considering the initial plan was to be an independent custodian with Twitter as the public-facing client, which they now are trying to be both reference and a product.
Bluesky doesn't really exist yet, and its growth won't come from the same place if they successfully deliver on any of their open decentralized goals. There would be nothing to capture in that scenario. But their current “growth” doesn’t even allow Jimmy Fallon two steps into the room, and the same issue applies to most English-speaking individuals.
you want genuine early adopters for a handful of YEARS before hype beast come in. Nothing that has hype that early on has stuck in tech.
