 Super apps will try to do everything, but can't really do most things super well. Regular-sized Clients will try to manage most of a given domain but are likely to centralize users on themselves, an unwanted effect inside of Nostr. If we want Nostr to grow in a decentralized fashion, we have to start betting on and using more Mini and Micro clients.

 Almost everyone. Our operating systems make installing and managing 100s of micro apps virtually umberable. 

We can break Amethyst today into 9 fully featured clients (Feeds, DMs, Shorts, Public Chats, Marketplaces, Communities, Live Streams/Spaces, Blogs, Events/Calendars), ~40 mini apps or about ~190 micro apps.

Even with today's breakoff, it's already very hard to get new users to install Amber and then Citrine before even opening Amethyst.

And it's just 3 apps that already work really well together.
