looks like steadily improving 30 day retention in several recent monthly cohorts!
i suspect some of this comes down to great onboarding. would any client developers who have better than average onboarding stats for their app relative to the network be willing to share their numbers?
we should share best practices about onboarding to make the protocol stronger for everyone

which client in nostr has the best onboarding experience?
in traditional centralized social networks there is a tremendous amount of effort given to helping users onboard well (get connected, setup profile, learn how it works, etc.) and have a great first time user experience. there are often dedicated teams working on constantly measuring and improving “FTUX”
the reason for all this effort is that it has a huge impact on user retention
nostr doesn’t do this and consequently has very weak retention
you are a product tester here on nostr. don’t assume you’re doing something wrong just because an app isn’t working as you expect. document issues you’re having and share with the developers. even just tag developers in a note to ask questions.

Can nostr help?
“Building a product is a bit like making art,” she said. “I think you just make something that you like as a person, and know not everyone will love it. But some people who have the same point of view, they would, and then you can grow your community from there.”
