I feel kinda bad for being so intermittent here on Nostr, but otoh the nice thing about being away for big gaps is coming back to see how much things have improved since I "left".
The entire UX (I'm using Primal and Damus fwiw) is just getting smoother and smoother. And the foundational features of "no censorship" and "aligned incentives" (zaps) is really starting to pay off, it seems.
congrats to everyone who's stuck with Nostr and helped cultivate it. ima trynna do more to help out going forward.

Soooo… I haven’t kept up with all the latest Nostr protocol developments- what’s the current response to “Nostr’s weak point is that it needs relays”?
I.e. how does it scale when it needs a strong network of relays, and how can it be resilient when someone can attack relay operators / take those relays down?

Discoverability is definitely tougher here than on Xwatter. Find and follow a few known accounts, then go dig through THEIR “following” and “followers” lists. A bit more laborious.

Now tho? Twitter (X) has just devolved into an algorithmic slop delivery system, amplifying and rewarding the engagement farmers and doom hustlers. Nostr is natural.
