 Very well put when you said (paraphrase): people would not care unless they are being censored or their decades worth of work are censored and lost their account. 

People would not care if they are happy to continue to be enslaved. 👌

I understand that UX for average non-tech savvy would matter most to them. "Convenience vs censorship-resistant".  I am more concerned on the security and longetivity of nostr which is critical to nostr's success. Early adopters understand the UX but let's not forget that we were bombarded by spam weeks' back. Thankfully these are friendly and harmless. I doubt if the adversary would be as kind as the former. Whilst I acknowledge nostr's need for improvement, let's address the basic non-functional requirements in relay and client level. Then we can talk about UX.

Incentive wise, the zap incentives is in itself value for value. This takes a different mindset shift. If we compare nostr to Youtube it will fail because it has different model. Youtube relies on ads and Nostr is not focus on ads but on zaps and freedom of expression.
