It is somehow misleading to feature a Twitter clone on the front page when Mastodon is a better way to achieve that.

The protocol's real value lies in other use cases.

Mastodon merged their server-side recursive fetching of remote replies feature in the summer of this year so unless instance admins used 3rd party scripts to achieve that you couldn't rely on your reply actually being shown to the recipient. ActivityPub is complicated like that.

Nostr has a better UX than ActivityPub IMO, for the basic reason that you do not need to learn how to self-host a server or depend on an unaccountable admin that might shut down the server at any time. In Nostr, you just create an account and go!

The big issue is the lack of content, but that's a social problem, not a UX problem.

Nostr’s UX on Primal is 10x better than Mastodon imo. I haven’t looked into how it works but every time I try an application with it, it’s been an unpleasant experience.
