Having collected some feedback, combined with some personal ideas, here are what seem to be the areas for most improvement in Nostr / clients:
Discovery is an issue, people don’t know who to follow...
"No onboarding process talks about relays now." — Coracle's does, and includes an explainer video. I encourage everyone to check it out. Coracle also has integrated image uploads for profile setup. I plan to integrate profile setup into the onboarding process along with a "hello nostr" note to get folks started.
Also, I don't think the topics approach will work, spammers will just start using topics to death. There's no substitute for the social graph. Great research though, usability testing is super important.
