 Elon, how about turning Twitter into a #nostr client? 

If you really want to provide the world  with a public town square this is what you should do. 
 He doesn't want that imo 😤🙄 
 He doesn't want.
He wants a ALLinONE app to have the control on anybody, and more power than any government. Billions of people personal data + financial ones.

#Nostr is X's nemesis. 
 No, #Nostr seemingly won’t be. 14K daily writing events isn’t that much, especially when you count Twitter’s current daily users. Your mean stream rapper, youtuber, singer, whatever you want, isn’t on here. Don’t get me wrong, I support Nostr and hope it’ll have a future. I am just not sure if the masses really care. https://image.nostr.build/3a059e001d0b869af52881799c61269387b54d6b444edc0981f2b3b1357306e1.jpg  
 I completely agree with you. Masses don't care. 
It's not about being "here" but more about needing this protocol and how it works. 
Until you are not censored or get full from MSM and twitter bs, you'll not need #nostr. 

Everyone gets #nostr after the (shadow) ban they don't deserve.

It's still a niche of a niche.. but it will grow, as the dystopian social media narrative grows. 
 Yes. That would be amazing. 
 do you think there can be only 1 digital town square, similar to money? 

or is it different with town squares. 
 Creative  
 no chance, he wants to make the western version of wechat 
 No.
