I have not seen any depressing conversations 🤷♂️ Where? All I saw was bluesky growing, nostr not as fast. And people talking about marketing. So far, from what I've heard, most people are pleasantly surprised with Nostr, so it seems it's just a matter of getting the word out. Marketing can help. Marketing doesn't mean not building. You can build and market at the same time.

Comparisons to bluesky are so shortsighted! When Meta/X announce their next new innovation bluesky will be left in the dust. It is incredibly narrow and has no depth. Nostr is a replacement and an advancement all in one. Like you said it is just going to take time to build - build the tech, build the community, and build confidence.

yea, also its good to have competitions. Keep things exciting lol. But i wish people are talking more about Nostr vs Blusky instead of Bluesky vs Twitter. Because then, it will build public hype for protocol based social media. Jon's also right, Nostr is a long term project and Nostr dev's have it harder because unlike other competitions, Nostr is a place for everyone with all kinds of mindset. Like you said, it will be the real public town square. One thing I appreciated really late in entrepreneurship is the influence of marketing on everything. I have been sharing a lot of marketing books of late and i have 2 more and i hope nobody gets upset by it!
Oh, shouldn’t get upset at something at the core of successful apps.
