Could also potentially provide a canary for a nsec being compromised, but this would simultaneously create a greater incentive to compromise nsecs.

I don't follow npubs who exclusively repost for this reason, but I like to strike a good balance with mine because that's the main means of discovery on nostr atm.

I'm convinced the main reason nostr has been slow to adopt is because people are still recovering from how they behaved on twitter.

I agree with everything here and would add a few points on the slow adoption. I think Elon buying X and ostensibly removing sensorship was a huge headwind for nostr.
You're exactly right. People learned to use computers because they were useful. Right now I'm not sure exaclty what the value proposition is for nostr beyond freedom tech and dev networking.
Those are huge use cases to me personally and I think they'll accelerate the development of the platform as well as adjacent projects, but a majority of the population needs one of two conditions to join.
1. UX is better than legacy options
2. Legacy sites get so shitty that people leave en masse
I have a feeling both conditions will be met around the same time.
I also think NGU will help.

Thanks for asking. I was really enjoying how smooth the UX experience was on @nprofile…kfsj though it has less features, but I have primarily used amethyst for years.
My main issue as a user is simple because I am not that technical.
I have no idea how relays work and don't want to touch the settings, but I would like for profile pictures and posts to show up consistently. I would like to press one or two buttons to get set up on relays (including the payment process if paid relays are necessary)

Ah yes. I'd be glad to. Wisp is designed for normies and the dev running it decided to remove amber support, which means I'd have to use my private key (nsec) to sign in.
When I updated the app it logged me out and so I am using a different client because amber provides some protection for my nsec by allowing me to manage permissions.

I guess I could go back to an older version, but that feels like a hack. I'd rather use an app that's currently under development.

Yeah it'a a chicken and egg problem. Won't buy bitcoin until they research it and won't research it until they own it.
I usually suggest people buy a small amount (relative to their net worth) and watch it from there. If they ask me "what would you do?" I say I would do exactly what I've already done, but again. All in.
