 I've always preferred .org honestly.

Especially for groups of like minded folks.

Which page is less scary from the first thing you see when you load in your browser?

 Oh goodness! 🙄 🤣

I have to go with .com on that note. I don't feel like the birds are the right move on .org ... Honestly the anime characters either. 

.com has an ostrich, and the color scheme is nice.

 It’s a well designed landing page!

No where is “nostr” mentioned.

The “Bitcoin wallet” bit may scare off normies.

To add context, I am seeking a neutral, protocol-like landing page not necessarily associated with a single company or project.

 Appreciate the suggestion. Wikipedia is a psy-op on any important topic, and its layout is not aesthetic.

 nostr.org looks cosier to me
nostr.com looks more corporate, and mentionS scary words like IoT !
