We need to relearn human psychology, specifically what brings people together and what inspires them to open Instagram, YouTube, or TikTok. The majority don’t care about earning or monetizing their content or comments—95% of the audience is just there for fun (except on LinkedIn). Only businesses and creators care about fast lightning and Zaps reactions on posts; the majority still care about fun, value, and entertainment. Let's go back to standard and purpose of networking sites. Connect with unexplored places and people without worrying about your country's permissions or content blocking. Connect with world on Nostr without taking permissions.
Nostr and the LN combines open global connections with the ability to conduct commerce locally for all goods and services. Reaching out across the world is an option and a choice, but paying for the food you eat, for the expenses of housing, education and health care, for all the things we enjoy, that's the real power that we have given over to gate keepers and middle men for centuries. That's the power we need to take back, using a medium of exchange and unit of account that doesn't fail as a store of value over time.
