I don’t know about the numbers, but I feel that Nostr is a natural fit for people with a sovereignty mindset. Many people don’t simply value privacy (“I have nothing to hide”) and self-ownership (“what if I lose my password?”).

If the vast majority of Bitcoiners (people who are running nodes etc.) are using Twitter, Facebook, etc., I don’t think it’s surprising that there are not that many of us here.

I have not been using Nostr that long, but I like it. I don’t use traditional social media, and I cannot even consider using it anymore.

I see it like this:

We will have a lot more people, who wake up and start embracing Bitcoin, Nostr, and other freedom / privacy tools.

But, unfortunately, we will also have a lot more people, who get totally addicted to their TikTok accounts and other shit.
