lil rant: am I the only one who thinks that NOSTR sorta gained steam at the wrong time?
I know Jack was a big part of the early onboarding back in Q4 2022, but something tells me if it all came together just a bit earlier in the 2021-2022 censorship crisis w/ Jan 6th, trucker protests, etc - NOSTR would be EXPONENTIALLY more complete on a software + UX perspective by now than it actually is today.
the use case for the average person is just not that obvious or impactful in an environment that isn't hostile towards free speech, which Twitter/X isn't at the moment.
and even if it were to become gradually worse, the benefits of using a centralized platform for free speech (like hosting videos natively) vastly outweighs the difficulty it takes to execute the same speech on this one
(maybe I'm shouting into the wind, but I thought it'd be worth posting since I can never delete the thought on NOSTR even if I wanted to, the same way I can't delete the thought from my head 😂)
