I get that Nostr grew out of a cypherpunk / developer / Bitcoiner subculture, and that’s fine. But if the goal is to attract people beyond that circle, the current visual language is extremely limiting and, frankly, quite weird. And I say this as a musician and web designer. The article itself is excellent—I fully agree with its message and support it—but visually it’s a hard sell to outsiders when it’s illustrated with pink ostriches and flying bat-cats. Inviting people into a fully purple, comic-style universe isn’t wrong, but it inevitably speaks to a very narrow audience. Right now, that aesthetic still mostly appeals to developers, Bitcoiners, and cypherpunks—and that’s a growth bottleneck.
