The recurring theme in the replies is “The content is here, you just have to put in the work and actually dig for it.”

I mean, if you ask users what issues they have with nostr, and the answer to these issues is “try harder”, that’s totally fine, but it’ll very hard to reach any kind of mass adoption this way.

(And still, outside of Bitcoin and a couple of hashtags, even if you dig the content is still very shallow compared to what we can find elsewhere.)

It’s not a blame on anybody, just my 2 sats after using nostr for about 1.5 year.

That is also what’s part of the magic of nostr : a tight knit community where interactions are still mostly warm and friendly… just like most of the medium/places that just got created and haven’t taken off, yet.

You can keep nostr hardcore, and try to hold onto this cozy feeling for as long as possible… and that’s fine, but then don’t try to improve it too much …
Because if nostr starts to get too good, it might get mass adopted, and nostr will start resembling any other cesspool that the big social networks have become. (All about engagement farming through manipulating people emotions, mostly through bad feelings)

Personally, I’d love to have all the content I can read on twitter and elsewhere on nostr, and be able to find it easily… Ideally, being able to read and interact with other network from my favorite nostr clients would be ideal.
