We need to build a better experience for users. People need to use nostr and get value, to keep using it.
We need to think 'how can I make nostr more useful to people, how can we give people more value'.
I think a lot come, aren't following people / don't have their relays setup right (or know this is a thing), and then have a muted experience which naturally doesn't keep them around.
I think a dedicated onboarding client could be a good idea, which guides you on following people, setting up your relays, wallet setup, etc.
I would boil it all down to outbox model setup and discovery (ongoing), to get / keep people using nostr.

Who is around Chiang Mai, Thailand?
Two upcoming Bitcoin events in April
April 3
A small group BitDevs meetup with only 50 seats available. The focus will be on deeper technical discussions around Bitcoin. We already know that OpenClaw will be discussed, Fedi will be presenting, and Bob Space will be announcing the remaining speakers and topics soon.
April 4
A full day seminar at the university featuring both local and international speakers, framing Bitcoin within the context of modern finance. This will also be the first time multiple universities are collaborating around this topic in Thailand. There are 100 observer seats available, with the remaining seats reserved for students.
Capacity for both events is limited and spots will fill quickly. If you are interested in attending one or both, please complete this short form so I can secure your invitation: April 3: https://forms.gle/K9t7f8vJARnQrtR48
