I’ve been there. I killed accounts with tens of thousands of followers when I joined Nostr years ago. By all means, you do you.

For me—and for many creators, businesses, and artists—compartmentalized reach has been part of the tradeoff, depending on threat model and goals.

Nostr is ideologically sound, but by the numbers, new user growth still trends toward zero, and reach is negligible outside a small, insular crowd.

Using other platforms tactically doesn’t have to mean surrendering to them.
