Nostr is a decentralized framework which prevents censorship, one of the biggest challenges is that 99.99% of the content people want to post (and do) never even enters the censorship-level conversation. If the key advantage (as I see it) is censorship resistance, nostr does not confer tangible benefit outside of fringe cases of free speech. Thus what dominates the conversation is audience reach, and accessibility, both of which nostr suffers with with lack of clients with strong algorithms and honed in UX that flagship SMs possess. Nostr is just the underlying protocol, if you want to drive real adoption, you need fresh insight into what users and/or creators are looking for at the client level, not the protocol level. Just my 2¢.
