I must admit that I'm struggling to find a decent use case for #nostr as protocol.
The clients are often inconsistent, which makes the user experience poor or impaired. Some are extremely capable, others are basic.
Also, where are the old posts? They are lost somewhere and hardly loaded. There is no separation between media and text notes, which makes it hard for artists to showcase their work.
The filtering by hashtag is okay, but more is needed. The scrolling becomes a lot heavy after a while.
I might find it interesting as a coder, but that's different from my goal here at the moment. Also, the conversations with "notes and reply" are suboptimal because the notifications point to a specific point of the discussion. Then it is all about digging your way back to the original note.
No censorship is fantastic, but there is no spam protection, either. More control over your own content would be handy.
I'm not defending or supporting any bird, but this is far from being an alternative.
I'm not giving up yet, but it doesn't work for me so far.
