I agree that it might not work out. Also a fan of it and read a lot about it before it was even cool, but I'm afraid the rather inorganic explosion of traffic following Jack's flow of money and popularity might do bad to it.

Not trying to criticize it since I am hoping for a much better alternative to the currently centralized channels we have. As a messaging platform, nostr works great, especially with a private relay.
