 A lot of very smart ppl are hashing this out because it's a hard problem with many moving parts and unknowns.

I only have questions.

Growing nostr is three things

1) generate interest
2) onboarding
3) retention

The landing page / nostr.com discussion is about 1) and 2)

@jack is mostly talking about 3)

As a product Nostr is an ecosystem with single sign-on not an app

That is hugely beneficial for 1)

Not so much for 2)

Questions

Are 1) and 2) the same website / landing page?

If no is it better to have a separate website / landing page for 2) or push onboarding onto the clients?

If yes is it more beneficial at this moment to optimize 2) for mainstream adoption or niche target audiences? 

And is it better for nostr.com to expose the ecosystem or guide toward the standard social media type applications (where ppl can get more help)? 

And should nostr.com handle account creation / point to an app that does?
