Nostr itself is frustrating. The place is sold as a uncensorable alternative to th G's like Twitter, but then builders mostly seem to build for other builders never actually fullfilling the promise. Clients will often not get the basics right stopping people like me from recommending it to friends and customers. And things are so temperamental
My hope is that builders focus on widespread adoption and start thinking like normies, starting with the basics of just making stuff work. And work outwards from there.
My advice is follow accounts that are nostr based, yes somewhat of an echo chamber but it helps to learn about projects and builds, and updates to existing apps etc. I find it very interesting that way
