Tipping is a practice I generally dislike both irl and in apps- although I think it is good it's there.
Personally think committing to a subscription is best- a tip should only be a secondary option, not the primary. The creator can set expectations about what they need, and the user can commit for a period of time.

If your principles are based on freedom, you should not be dictating personal beliefs and choices of others. People who opposed mandatory vaccination but think they should be able to dictate to others how they handle complex issues like gender/sexuality are hypocritical and not really commited to freedom.

Problems others speak of we might consider solving
1. Enshittification of the internet- content quality is bad and getting worse.
2. Monetisation- most people on apps consistently hope to become influencers-we have a payments platform but no cashflow stream or products- thus we are not a marketplace the way tiktok right now
People are attractive to tiktok content production for the same reasons some people buy "crypto"- except they want fame and money

The social media fever has generally died down- the liabilities that were revealed in 2020 are fading in people's memories.
There needs to be some way for ownership of the identity to be monetized for them. Otherwise the energy cost and the deferred network opportunities don't jive.

Unclear on the relationship between fedimint and ecash.
I listened to some pods about fedimint and feel positively toward it because we need better on ramps/custody solutions- although 2of3 multisigs seem to be moving much more quickly in that space.

For me opposition hinged around a principle of bodily autonomy- I believe no government should have a right to force someone to get a treatment.
Most people whol oudly followed the logic you outlined above did so convinced that the shots were sterilizing and would be a magic bullet solution- which I found absurd during the later phases when it had become clear that they were merely palliative at best. Threatening jobs for people who were 100% work from home was rediculous. I also think people who took the shot had broadly better outcomes- and many people who were against the vax here (usa) were incredibly cavalier, inconsiderrte, spread the virus without consideration of risks, etc. Many of the people have immediately been vindictively curtailing autonomy here- showing they learned nothing from the experience of covid.
Even so-I think it's useful to consider how to handle this if it happens again because very likely we are facing a future with what will likely be engineered viruses in it - having no clear template for dealing with viral outbreaks is now a proven threat/issue.

I'm really kinda unclear why an nostr app HAS to be nostr only- since as I under stand t nostr is too public to be good at dms. Why can't we link say simplex to an npub, similar to a lighting address?

What's needed is the ability to better organise communities.
Personally I don't think nostr is technically any where near the stage of being a big normie melting pot, if from no other view than the state of the system itself is not ready for that.
It's far better for it to aim first at being a very vibrant string of interconnected niche communities or a protocol for ai marketplaces

No. Not really.
Nostr needs to build out its ability to have private communities that use the protocol/relays but have their own mods, standards, block lists-etc.
It's a technicle problem- nostr is like early email and very much still in development as you have likely noticed. I'm urging the devs here to build these tools to allow communities to define their own boundaries.

One of the biggest barriers with nostr right now is the algorithms are not complex, so it feels like a private clubhouse. It reminds me of an old forum but if it was in twitter format. It works best for a small subculture. It needs the ability to interconnect many such islands and nurture unique, distict view points.

Imho what the left needs is a strong suite of relays level mod tools. We also just generally need the ability to load up a pre-configured starter list of follows and relays. I imagine various left wing relay circles and friend groups that actually do not interact with btc Mucha all

I think people should be able to set up their own client vibes, relays, etc. If they want to create their own social ecosystem totally separate they can.
Nostr needs a second community to adopt it. Communities can join together later like voltron.

Hashtaga a great idea.
We also can benefit from:
- sharable relays/predefined starter follow lists- user curated and preferably available from your app.
-more mastodon connectivity,ditto bluesky
-app "stores" that make it easy for users to see nostr's broad functionality base- nests, streaming, music, etc... I like this platform but keeping up with all the micro developments is 😵‍💫

It's dated and the federated model is a cluster- too difficult to use.
You may not be aware but there are ways to link fedi and nostr- so to some extent the two are interlinked.
Nostr has some of the same problems with onboarding.
I am a fan of going in the direction of customisable clients that can start off with recommended packages of starter relays-follow lists that people can share around. This would be good for other niche communities that want to be here.
Nostr already seems to me to have more functionality built out than fedi.

Brutal but true...however...Systems like mastodon also had a small pool of regular users to begin with. This is a stronger core group than I have seen in most social. It functions waaay better than most others I've tried and the dev speed is amazing. It just needs another community to onboard.
