Or, you could actually learn how Pubky works.
Pubky
Key-based, self-regulating web that puts users in control.

This week I dropped my first formal research paper: Credible Exit and The Law of Conservation of Blockspace.
It shows the limit on users that Bitcoin layers can support in a "trust-minimized" way, and proves layers cannot actually scale Bitcoin.
It's so over?! No, but this requires earnest/honest protocol engineers and builders to recalibrate narratives and R&D around scaling the taboo concepts of trust, and credit.
Synonym adjusted about a year ago and thus has already begun designing and implementing new ways to address the situation.
@dzdidi and I also presented the latest progress on Paykit, a superficial payment layer for optimal coordination and payments UX.
My slides are here, maybe Denys can share his too.

Conservation of Blockspace
Static block-weight accounting bound for unilateral L1 enforcement across 1-day, 14-day, and 28-day windows.

You can't actually solve problems while following current norms.
Because acceptable norms provably allow current problems to exist.
Good morning, you should be building on Pubky.
A list of products you are probably neglecting as a Bitcoiner, and as a proponent of freedom software in general.
If nostr were the answer, people like me would be building on it.
Ask yourselves who the builders are that aren't choosing nostr, and why.
Then ask yourselves what all the people building here have in common.
Then compare these groups earnestly. I dont just mean Bitcoiners vs Bluehairsky. I mean their experience, talent, and reputation.
I mean the most talented and resourceful people; people that innovate, and have deep expertise. Why aren't they leaving where they are to build here?
Examples: Bitcoin Core devs, shitcoin expert devs that really do want to fix things, talented cryptographers, deeply experienced systems/p2p people, experienced entrepreneurs, reputable VCs and funders.
The closest I see here are people that got Bitcoin-rich and are now learning how to be angels by naively funding their friends and dead-end startup projects that arent much better than weekend hackathon submissions. A sandbox for playing.
Everything worth anything here is a subdivision of Bitcoin culture itself and Bitcoin privilege. Bitcoin is the only provider of talent and resources to Nostr. That worked great to bootstrap from nothing, but now what?
Deal with this, and figure out how to be relevant to other people, or Nostr will continue to be nothing more than a perpetual hackathon sandbox subsidized by a Bitcoiner ego-cult.
