I stay not because i was ever banned but because I believe in what nostr is and could become. Also cause the ppl here are cool.
You only need a critical mass of people for a platform to be worth using, and it isn't millions. Facebook needs millions or billions of users because they want all the money, but having enough people for a fulfilling feed is enough for most users.

Network effects. If your friends are there, you go there, and never think about it again. Facebook got in the first with the most, although I see a lot more people now who refuse to use it or the equally odious Instagram.

There is some measure of network effects, and that's why you need to have that critical mass of users, but once you have that critical mass of users so your friends are there, it doesn't matter if a bunch of people who aren't your friends are there.
Hypothetically, if you set up a standalone social network that only contained all the people you talk to and not one person more, then at least for you that is the perfect social network, you don't need anyone else.

You want access to your social group, or people who like your stuff, which requires randoms too.
The FOAF factor helps locally, the lots of people with nothing to do but click on stuff helps build your brand.
