Fair enough. Whether key value store goes anywhere is all about the dance between apps and specs. Nostr leaves a lot to be desired especially on the specs front so with a sane and fair standards process I think it could eat.
Is it crazy to think that I'm primarily using Nostr apps (outside of work)
Amethyst and Primal replaced Twitter Wavlake replaced Apple Music Ox Chat replaced Telegram Zap.store replaced Google play store Fountain replaced Spotify Npub.pro and cypher.space replaced ghost and Shopify
Sn has nostr integrations Obsidian has a nostr extension
Nostr only has about 10k daily active users My user experience is probably in the top 1k due to relay selection/follows/constant tweaking.
Nostr amazes me.
Doesn't feel like I'm being unrealistic or smoking hopium when I say, the normie nostr user will have a 100x better experience in 12 months......not that I'm waiting for the normie to catch up either......and not calling you a normie.

The progress has been amazing and will continue no doubt. What seems evident though is growth in users is way below what would be expected if all of the replacements were objectively better than their counterparts.

True.
Although (for better or worse) I see user growth as just another metric that will improve my UX.
And the counterparts are a heck of a force when not standing alone.
I'm not clambering for user growth, but maybe it would help the devs with sustainable profitability.
