There won't be a monoculture. What are you crying about? Go make your app, just don't expect us to agree with every design choice or to think you're being reasonable when you don't address people's legitimate points. You sound like a pragmatist who believes in the false theory-practice dichotomy, and believes that you have to sacrifice principles to reach the majority, and that's not the kind of person I want to associate with. That's entirely distinct from wanting to make things that help onboard normies. But you don't seem to be able to fathom the difference, and what's more, you take offense to anyone disagreeing with you. It is a slave mentality. So can it. Create what you think the world needs but do so by YOUR judgement. Stop giving a fuck what we think.

I'm talking about the impression I get from what I have seen in the discussions surrounding Wisp, where you seemed confused that any of your users would be displeased at the idea of you eliminating Amber support from it or adding a bunch of features they don't want, but gave no reason for why to remove it, only reasons for the other things (trying to reach more people, ease of use, options - which did make sense for adding the features). The way you handled the discussion made me think, ok you want to pivot to focus on appealing to certain people, that's cool, but you were surprised that current users are displeased even though you could keep Amber support, and as far as I saw you did not even address that question. That's a bit unreasonable. And you still are pretending that all the criticism is about users wanting to gatekeep nostr, which is a strawman and betrays your myopic view of this. I am merely pointing it out.
