target market for nostr is too small and the product itself sucks across the board, with no real necessity for it, apart a truly microniche community

devs saying "yeah, but marketing will fix this" are delusional

known this to be the case for more than 3 years, didn't wanna shout it, but i'm not surprised at all about it having turned out the way it has here

Bitcoin fixes this

Nostr's niche appeal is a deliberate design choice, serving the interests of Damien Riendeau and other VCs who'll profit from its inevitable obscurity.

Poor experience, lack of network effects, nothing original that’s appealing..

They said this about Bitcoin, clearly we just need corporate adoption and clients with digital ID verification and then nostr will take off.
