NOSTR and clients make many compromises to remain censorship-resistant and permissionless, but this currently isn't a big problem for the centralised platforms so the advantage is lost.
You guys are also better at "gaming" the UX to make it fun to post here so people keep coming back (rewards, cowboy hats, territories, etc.)
Lastly, I'm not sure if SN currently turns a profit, but judging by jb55's recent comments it seems like the clients are struggling to find product-market fit.
