Maybe we need to give it waaaay more time to grow organically. Bitcoiners were the start, others with other focus will follow and build up their own communities. Same with Bitcoin. I think we all need to stretch our time horizon. People will come when there is a need (and pain).

I think as soon the user interface/experience gets better as soon we reach more people.

I'm not a dev coder but I can do a lot of things alone, like ro build a HTML website + css, build a server using free ready-code templates, build ecommerces, marketing it, build NFT ecosystem, etc, etc. Even with this little experience (in comparison wih a real dev coder) I felt like a n00b when I get to Nostr (I'm here just about 1-2 months).

So there is a lack of documentation and tutorial, but I'm sure this will happen with time.

I like to use MetaMask as an example. In the beginning, to transfer ETH from a wallet to another you had to manually put gas GWEI numbers on the following fileds: Gas Limit, Max priority Fee and Max Fee. If you put the wrong number (that is not the numbers of te market moment) you just get a fail transaction. So I remember I lost some money doing tests and learning. There was a lack of tutorial that time the same way is hapenning with Nostr today. Only researching in Reddit forums I could find some tips to fix the transactions problems + courage to not lose more money.

Now when I make a transfer on MetaMask are there more automatic decisions like: Market price, Lowwe price and Advanced (the old way). So today is easer to do transfer from their application. And you see a lot of n00b people finding a way to use it and being succeed.

I'm using ETH as an example (even knowing the code estructure is completly different) because I think the same will happen with Nostr. People will learn. More tutos will show up. Technology and user interface/experience will improve.

That's it.

Let's build! Let's feedback. Let's FG!

Maybe a tutorial on how to avoid random porn on Nostr. It pops up all over, and it makes me much less inclined to use it.

Social media hit a dead-end in terms of advancement over a decade ago (i.e. when they made social media smart phone apps). The only advancement since then has been the creation decentralized social media protocols (e.g. Secure Scuttlebutt, ActivityPub). But Nostr-as-social-media is such a minor improvement over those protocols and over centralized platforms that there's no practical reason to switch to Nostr-as-social-media.

But, Nostr can be used in other, better ways -- if only people would give up on social media.

FB is very much alive across the world. Might be dying in the US, but not the case abroad, where entire businesses depend on the FB suite of products for their online presence.

I'm hoping it will take the same trajectory as BTC. Small and niche in the early days but as time has progressed the decentralised and censorship proof protocol of BTC has proven to be valuable. Same with NOSTR. As more people get into BTC and naturally find NOSTR, which integrates well with BTC, we will hopefully see adoption grow. Long time preference.

Can Nostr be the "Distribution layer" of social content ?
