 I'm trying to figure that out myself. Seeing someone like you who's put in so much work to provide high-quality content, build up a large following, and then at the click of a button, and because for some reason content might not be considered politically correct, you lose visibility... 
To me, it makes me think: Isn't it weird that most of our exchange of ideas is hosted on platforms of private companies? This isn't normal and isn't how it's supposed to be. 
Nostr is the future, and we should be able to build our personal algorithms where we decide what we see. There's too much room for private companies to feed us with whatever. Many people I follow/subscribe to, I don't see anymore in my feed, and I see a lot of profiles that I don't follow being fed to me. It should be entirely in our hands! At the moment, the freedom to follow/subscribe to whoever you want is similar to the freedom to vote in our fake democracies. We should have a say on very concrete questions. 
That being said, Nostr in 2024 is like Bitcoin in 2012. Nostr provides a basis for freedom of speech, and free exchange of ideas. Even if it's less convenient now, I'm sure it will pay out later on.
