The comparison with X is misplaced. Nostr is so much more than only a social media platform. This said, it's very new technology, and still very niche.

With nostr, you have full control of your digital identity and your data. I am not trying to be dismissive, but if you don't see the value of this, then nostr is not for you.

I don't code and can navigate fine, although it's not completely intuitive...full disclosure I do prefer X as I like having a feed that has multiple topics
