I am here because I believe that Nostr is probably the only network that can help combat authoritarianism. But for that to happen, it needs to grow. I would like to help, but in order to do so in a meaningful way, I first need to understand what is actually wrong.

RE LN - I was skeptical of Lightning in 2023. Still am. It remains too technical for mainstream adoption. Because of complexity it tends to centralization and forcing people using custodial wallets and centralized middlemens. Monero, Zcash, stablecoins etc. are much more human-scalable and easy to use.
