lol. Perhaps I will get inspired to start a newsletter… There’s the easy answer and then there is the question of why is everything here a copy of something else. At a 10,000 ft level ActivityPub and Farcaster innovated with their protocols and experiences. Nostr and ATProtocol only innovated at the protocol level. Both face challenges as a result.

Product focused thinking and writing is sorely needed. I think there are quite a few new “things” built on nostr (zaps, e-cash, blossom, dvm..). The distributed nature of nostr and the median lone wolf dev means that there is an uphill battle to build performantly on nostr, even without the new “things”/elements. Way behind in the priorities are where theoretically the interoperability magic of nostr creates a not yet existing elsewhere experience.
