Agreed. I think that’s essentially the same as claiming we won’t get adoption of #Bitcoin by extolling the principles of sound money and separating money from state. Sure mass adoption won’t happen because of that, but we won’t even have a single die hard fanatic who holds through 90% drawdowns without finding the people who care about those principles and understand the mission of fixing the money. 

Same story with Nostr: We don’t need to pitch this for mass adoption yet, we need to find all the dissidents, privacy advocates, those censored from centralized platforms, and everyone who cares about the *purpose* of Nostr. Thats millions and millions of people who would put up with more limitations, bugs, or lack of numerous features because they care about what it *means,* not what it is at this particular moment. And they will stay and build everything they want it to be.

You’ll never overtake centralized incumbents with detached users who just arbitrarily like some feature of an app. But if you can start a movement, the game is very, very different.
