I think the main issue is that there are core features that are either impossible or very hard.
- Assured post deletion
- Assured account deletion
- Accurate follower counts across clients
- DMs you can send with confidence the other person can actually see them
- Username and password login option (can be abstracted, like Warpcast or Bluesky)
Nostr has none of these. My feeling is that it's just impossible to scale without a certain subset of core features like this. As in there is nothing you can offer users in return for not having these, you just have to tick these boxes—or accept that the network will always be niche. Niche can be good in certain contexts though, this is just the town square one.
