 When I joined nostr, my first thought as to why this protocol would win was — network effects due to interoperability of apps and intermingling of content. This was pre-zaps and I certainly didn’t care about censorship resistance one bit. 

Sadly, we don’t have great cross-app experiences yet. We have some and they are cool, but nothing killer. Nothing feels quite polished enough just yet. 

I still believe this is nostr’s best selling point. But we don’t have a good experience to sell yet. 

Zaps are awesome but too niche. Maybe in the long run people will realize how awesome they are. Censorship resistance- meh, no one cares. 

Id love to see more of the interoperability ideas and some collaboration for polished experiences.
