We have to grow it first. That means not just posting content here, but also advertising it on other social media for people to find out about it. We need to cross-post to other sites with a "follow me on Nostr" link, get our friends on here, etc. We need to encourage content creators on here to post content that is NOT ABOUT BITCOIN.

The number 1 value of Nostr isn't "value for value" right now (because there's not much value to go around yet), but lack of censorship, freedom, and not enriching big corporations.
